Thank Me Later:
My FAVORITE Meal Prep Recipe That I've Been Eating Consistently for Years!

↓

Tired of trying to find creative new recipes?

Same.

I'll spend a whole day wasting time and energy trying to come up with something new and exciting to eat, and then after about 2-3 days, I find myself wishing I had just prepped my typical ground turkey meal instead.

I'm a creature of habit, and even when I'm not in prep, I still find myself choosing my ground turkey over going out to eat.

With a mix of sweet and savory, this recipe hits all the boxes for me because it's:

• Clean
• Easily digestible
• Cost effective
• Requires little to no effort to prepare

Read below for my Honey Mustard-Sriracha Ground Turkey Recipe!

What you'll need:

You can buy whatever ground turkey you'd like, I always buy 93% lean ground turkey because it's cheaper and a little kinder to my cooking pans. See below for tips to save some additional calories. I cook 3lbs at a time, usually 2-3 times per week. (Seriously, it's my favorite)

The Trader Joe's Sriracha is slightly milder than your typical, which is why I like to use it. I can use more of it, without getting a tremendous kick to the throat.

**Just a heads up, both the Everything but the Leftovers seasoning and the Turkey Bone broth are seasonal items so if you DO love them like I do, stock up before Thanksgiving ends.

Directions:

Step 1:

First, throw the ground turkey in a deep pan and cover until it browns. I usually keep it covered for 5 minutes, reground the turkey so it cooks evenly, and then cover for another 3 minutes or so, until you can't see any pink, or uncooked meat.

Step 2:

Drain your meat! Because I buy 93% lean turkey, there's quite a bit of excess fat and water that can be drained out, which will save you extra calories! It's a super easy and effective way to pull back your calories from fat, without really noticing a difference.

Step 3: Time to season!

Throw the browned ground turkey back into the pan, and reground. The smaller you can ground the meat, the more evenly you'll be able to season it.

-Add in about 1/4 cup of bone broth. Not only does this allow the meat to rehydrate after you've drained it, but also sneakily adds a bit more protein as well.

As for the sriracha and the seasonings, I eyeball them. There's no associated calories, so I really just add everything in based on the look. There's about 3-4tbsp of sriracha, and about 1tbsp of each seasoning (Umami/Leftovers). As for the honey mustard, that calories are barely enough to really make a difference in your diet, but I still only add about 2tbsp.

See pictures below for reference.

Step 4:

Once you've added in all your ingredients, stir it all together, continuing to ground the turkey, and then cover it and let it sit and cook down for about 5 minutes. This is usually when I'll start washing the strainer and disposing the fat.

-You'll notice after about 5 minutes, the bottom will start to crisp up a bit, that's good. The honey mustard will make it even more crispy. Mix it around, and continue to let it crisp, uncovered, for an additional 3-5 minutes.

Step 5: Enjoy!

I usually pair this with either basmati rice, or some sort of potato.
