Ingredients

For Turkey:

  • 1 teaspoon avocado oil
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 2 tablespoon coconut aminos
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili paste
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger minced
  • 1/3 cup chopped Thai basil or sub regular basil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon grass sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

For the Veggies:

  • 2 teaspoons avocado oil or extra-virgin avocado oil
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 bell peppers cored and sliced
  • 1 cup green beans
  • 1 bunch bok choy
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

For Sauce:

  • 4 tablespoon coconut aminos
  • 1 teaspoon chili paste
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce

To assemble:

  • Cauliflower Rice or White Rice cooked
  • Bibb lettuce
  • Chili Peppers sliced
  • Carrots cut into thin strips

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Once hot add all turkey ingredients and mix until well combined. Cook until the turkey is cooked through and no pink remains, about 5-7 minutes. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
  • Meanwhile, prepare either cauliflower rice or white rice as desired.
  • To cook veggies: Heat oil in another pan over medium heat.  Add in diced onion, sliced red peppers and green beans. Cook until onion becomes translucent and veggies begin to soften, about 5-7 minutes. Add in bok choy, salt and pepper. Cook until wilted.
  • In a small pot add all of the ingredients for the sauce. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 1-2 minutes until sauce reduces and thickens slightly.
  • Assemble bowls by adding rice, then ground turkey, then veggies and drizzle with sauce. Serve with desired toppings. Serve immediately, or let cool completely before storing for meal prep.
