Notes

  • You can swap the turkey mince for beef or chicken or even a vegetarian alternative. Or, use just beans.
  • Grate a little bit of dark chocolate in, along with a sprinkle of cinnamon to really intensify the flavours.
  • Add some extra vegetables with butternut squash, spinach or kale.
  • You can serve this in a bowl by itself, or with rice or on a baked potato.
  • If you wanted to prep some of this in advance, you could brown the turkey and vegetables the day before and then just dump everything in the pan when you are ready to cook it.
