Healthy Indian Turkey and Cabbage Recipe
My family's history is an awesome mixture of Indian, Caribbean, British and South American. I can see glimpses of each culture in day to day life but it's most apparent when it comes to our food!
Here is a simple recipe that has the classic Indian favor, but is also healthy! It's a great alternative to chicken breast when you are looking to vary your meal prep. I enjoy that it has a savory taste and is a great source of protein!
Ingredients
1 lb of ground turkey
1/2 of a purple cabbage
8 to 10 cloves of garlic
2-3 cherry pepper OR use your favorite chili pepper
½ cup of onions
1 tablespoons of olive oil

4 teaspoons of tomato paste
6-8 shakes of Mrs. Dash
