For anyone who is on a carb-friendly diet I just wanted to throw out a simple high protein meal that I have found to be very delicious.
Ingredients:
2 cups of red quinoa 1 lb. of 93% lean ground turkey 1/2 cup of cedar's tabouli salad raw fresh broccoli
Bring quinoa to a boil, lower heat and simmer for 15 minutes, drain excess water
in frying pan cook ground turkey until lightly brown and fully cooked, drain if desired, but I recommend keeping the small amount of oil in for flavor (the fat and cals from the turkey oil are part of the listed nutritional facts).
stir quinoa and tabouli into the pan and simmer until tabouli has mixed in well.
1 cup of the mixture and 1 cup of raw broccoli in a microwave safe container makes for a great pre-prepped meal (the broccoli will cook when you warm it in the microwave when you are ready to eat. This will make 6 servings.
