Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
1 cup diced peeled sweet potato
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups water or ready-to-serve beef broth
1 can (15 1/2 ounces) black-eyed peas, rinsed, drained
1 can (13 1/2 ounces) light unsweetened coconut milk
2 cups packed fresh baby spinach leaves
3 tablespoons freshly chopped thyme leaves
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Brown ground beef in large nonstick skillet over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until beef is not pink, breaking up into 3/4-inch crumbles. Pour off drippings. Add sweet potato, onion, bell pepper and curry powder. Cook 4 to 5 minutes or until onion and peppers are crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in flour; cook and stir 1 minute.
