Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground turkey (or chicken)
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 Onion, diced
  • 1 Bell pepper, chopped

  2. Stir in the ground turkey, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned and no longer pink.
  3. Add bell peppers and zucchini to the skillet; cook until soft.

Notes

Feel free to substitute quinoa with brown rice or bulgur for different textures. This dish is also fantastic the next day, making it an ideal office lunch.
