Turkey Stuff

1 small yellow onion, chopped 

1 tbsp chopped garlic 

1 tbsp olive oil

1 lb ground Turkey

1 can petite diced tomatoes, drained 

2 red bell peppers (or green, orange, yellow, 🤷🏻‍♀️), chopped

1/4 c. Uncooked basmati rice

1 C chicken broth

On medium heat, sauté onion and garlic in olive oil until they are brown and soft. 

Add Turkey, cooking until brown and cooked through.

Add tomatoes and bell pepper and stir in.

Note: you could add in some corn, black beans, other seasoning such as chili powder, etc here. I’ve done all of those and they are great but I’m trying to keep this lower carb. 

Stir in rice and broth.  Lower heat, cover and simmer for 25 minutes. Check occasionally and add more broth as needed.
