Turkey Quinoa Bowl
Here is a delicious twist for you all to enjoy with all those turkey leftovers from Thanksgiving!
Ingredients
Turkey
- 1.25 lbs. turkey cutlets
- salt and pepper
- 1 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 1/2 tsp dried thyme
Sweet Potatoes
- 3 cups diced sweet potatoes
- 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- salt and pepper
Quinoa
- 2 cups chicken, turkey, or vegetable stock
- 1 Cup quinoa
Cranberry Sauce
- 1/2 Cup water
- 1/2 Cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 Cups fresh cranberries
Optional
- 2 Cups chopped romaine lettuce
- Toppings on preference
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Bring 2 Cups of chicken, turkey, or vegetable stock to a boil in a medium saucepan.
- Season the turkey cutlets with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Place on a baking sheet and bake until cook through, about 25-30 minutes.
- Toss the diced sweet potatoes in the olive oil. Spread on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven with the turkey for 20-25 minutes, or until fork tender.
- Once the stock is boiling, add the quinoa, cover, and reduce the heat. Simmer or about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed and the quinoa is done.
- While the turkey, sweet potatoes, and quinoa are cooking, make the cranberry sauce by adding the water and sugar to a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the cranberries and lower the heat to boil gently for about 10-12 minutes, stirring often.
- Once everything is done cooking, you can serve the bowls hot, or let the ingredients cool down some before putting the bowls together.
- Assemble these bowls by dividing the turkey, sweet potatoes, quinoa, and lettuce into 4 equal portions. Top with about 1/4 Cup of cranberry sauce and any other additional toppings of your choice
