ALTERNATIVE TO RED MEAT: SEASONED GROUND TURKEY

Ingredients

• Seasoned salt
• Curry
• Black pepper
• Ground Turkey
• Onions
• Vegetables, like sweat peas, corn, diced carrots or brocoli

A few years ago my sister introduced me to ground turkey. At the time we used to keep it simple, but over the last couple of years the dish has evolved.

• The first step is to fry onions separately in a pan, you can season the onions with salt, curry and black-pepper. Fry until the onions brown.
• Fry the ground turkey in the same pan with the onions
• Add vegetables to the pan and some more oil
• Add tomato paste to the mix

When cooking always test the food to make sure the ingredients are added in the right proportions.

This dish goes well with smoked rice, pasta and chapatis.

This dish is an alternative to red meat which is detrimental to the heart and has more fatty acids.
