There are always healthy alternatives for your favorite family dinners. One of my favorite things to do is cook and I always tend to make everything "weirdly healthy." This is something my family sometimes appreciates...and other times truly regrets, because my cooking can be some what of an experience sometimes. But, it is always a fun and learning experience. Here is a wonderful recipe for a healthy dinner that everyone will love!
Turkey Sloppy Jo's
- 10 ounces Lean Turkey Meat (Preferrably Lean 97/3)
- 1/2 Onion
- 8oz can of Black Beans (or 4oz black beans and 4oz garbanzo beans)
- 1/2 cup of chopped baby carrots
- 1/2 red bell pepper
- Veggies can be added...as much as you want for whatever taste you want.
- 1 tbs Chili powder
- 1-2 tbs Cider Vinegar
- 1 Clove Garlic
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Wheat Pitas
Cook the lean turkey meat, and pour out the extra fat. Set the meat aside. Next cook the onion on the skillet and add veggies and garlic. Re-add the meat to the onion mix, next adding the veggies and spices. You can adjust the spices to your liking. I tend to like alot of Chili powder, and love to add garlic salt as well. Once it has simmered together for 5-10 minutes. Spoon onto or half of a wheat pita. YUM :)
Please enjoy! Let me know what you think!
