Asian Turkey Quinoa

1 lb lean ground turkey
1-2 Tbs. coconut oil 
1 large onion chopped
1-cup shredded carrot  ( I like the colored mix )
1 clove garlic or minced garlic (1 lg tsp)
1 green zucchini (shredded)
1 cup diced spinach, kale, or dark green of some sort (I used kale this time)
1/4 cup organic soy sauce (I used Bragg’s Amino’s)
1 cup chopped mushrooms
Splash of chicken broth (maybe 1/4-1/2 cup)
2 cups of cooked quinoa

1.  Saute garlic and onions in 1 Tbs oil.  
2.  Once beginning to brown, add carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms and saute until slightly tender 
3.  Then add turkey and saute until cooked through.  
4.  Next add kale, your pre-cooked quinoa (use directions on box), and the soy sauce and chicken broth.  
5.  Simmer covered for 10 minutes


This was colorful and fun for a new healthy dinner!  You could play with it and add any and all veggies you like.  Shredding them made them quicker cooking and so colorful and tasty!
