Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. Add the sweet potatoes to one side of the sheet pan. Toss with 2 teaspoons avocado oil, half of the garlic powder, half of the onion powder, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and a little of the salt and pepper.
  3. Roast the sweet potatoes for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, cut the turkey breast into large, evenly sized pieces.
  5. Toss the turkey with the remaining avocado oil, minced garlic, remaining garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  6. Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Add the turkey and green beans alongside the sweet potatoes.
  7. Return to the oven and roast for another 15 to 18 minutes, or until the turkey reaches 165°F and the sweet potatoes are tender and browned.
  8. Whisk together the cranberry sauce, Grey Poupon, water, and apple cider vinegar.
  9. Divide the turkey, sweet potatoes, and green beans evenly among four servings.
  10. Drizzle each serving with one-fourth of the cranberry Dijon sauce.

Freezer Storage

  1. Cool everything completely.
  2. Divide into four individual freezer containers.
  3. Freeze for up to 2 months.
  4. Freeze the cranberry Dijon sauce separately when possible so the vegetables keep their texture.

Reheating Instructions

  1. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator when possible.
  2. Microwave for 2 minutes, stir or rearrange the food, then continue in 30-second increments until heated through.
  3. Add the cranberry Dijon drizzle after reheating.

40/400 Notes

  • The cranberry Dijon sauce gives lean turkey breast a distinct fall flavor without overwhelming it.
