easy peasy turkey dinner


This is a new recipe that was originally planned for turkey patties but, ended up being more like picadillo. I was even surprised how delicious it is! It will definitely be a regular in my dinner recipes. Added benefit is that its super healthy.

Ingredients
1 pack of ground turkey (the lean kind)
1 red pepper diced
1/2 white onion
1 garlic clove
1 handful of mushrooms diced (optional)
1/2 can of tomato sauce
hot curry powder
sweet paprika
olive oil
salt/pepper
1/2 cup of red wine
splash of chalula

Directions
Saute garlic and onions in olive oil till slightly translucent. Add ground turkey and brown while breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Once turkey is browned slightly add red pepper, mushrooms and season with salt/pepper, hot curry powder, sweet paprika, chalula...cook for for about 3 minutes. Then start gradually adding tomato sauce this will take another 3 minutes or so. Add the red wine and let cook for an additional 5 minutes or until the liquid has reduced. Bingo! Thats it! Taste while cooking to make sure you have seasoned to your liking.

I served with some left over whole wheat pasta and steamed brocolli but, over rice, in tacos or lasagna filling would be delish too!

Eet Smakelijk!
