Ground Turkey with Potatoes and Peas


It's almost fall!! I am so excited for the chilly weather and rainy days. As much as I love sun and summer, I will always love a lazy rainy day. This recipe was one I found in the middle of summer, but I couldn't help but make it. Glad I did, it was delicious. As I was eating this dish, I thought about how delicious this would be on a chilly autumn afternoon. I will be making this again in the fall to enjoy the warm full flavors!
