  1. Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high.
  2. Add the ground turkey, season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. Use the back of a mixing spoon to break up the turkey into smaller pieces.
  4. After about 5 minutes, add the onion and garlic.
  5. Sauté until soft and fragrant and the turkey is no longer pink.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together tapioca starch with 1 tablespoon of cold water.
  7. Stir in the tapioca slurry with the turkey.
  8. Add the diced Roma tomato and sauté for 1 minute.
  9. Add the diced, roasted chiles (as many as you want per spice preference), mushrooms and spinach.

  11. Bring to a simmer and add the peeled and diced potato.
  12. Season with salt, pepper and ground cumin.
  13. Continue to simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender but not falling apart, about 10-15 minutes.
  14. Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed.
  15. Serve by itself for a Whole30 option or with a side of red rice, white rice or beans.

Notes

Sub tapioca for arrowroot powder or cornstarch for other great gluten-free options. If gluten is not an issue, regular all-purpose flour works too. You can use regular chicken broth but I recommend bone broth or pork broth for an enhanced, richer flavor. Use more or less roasted chiles per your spice preference. For milder spice: -Start with less chiles and add more in the end if more spice is desired. -Or use a spoon to scoop out the veins and seeds from the inside of the chiles, where most of the heat is found. You can also use roasted Anaheim or Hatch chiles
