Didn't feel like chopping anything, didn't feel like much of a cleanup either. I just wanted a simple dish to make at home for me and my 15 year old goddaughter who was too busy updating her Facebook profile to weigh in on dinner options.
This recipe was little more than the result of a survey I took on my kitchen contents. I had ground turkey, buns, and a pantry full of spices & condiments. That being said; it was fun, simple, and not terribly unhealthy.
(This recipe could serve three, but in this case it served two with some meat leftover)
MEAT
lb: Lean Ground Turkey (brown completely)
SAUCE
1/2cup: Ketchup
2tbs: Olive Oil
1tbs: Red cooking wine (just cause I had some)
dash: White Vinegar
1/8cup: Worcestershire sauce
1/8cup: Brown sugar
tsp: Garlic Powder
1/2tsp: celery seeds (just because I had some)
Salt and pepper to taste
OTHER STUFF
vinegar
olive oil
buns
I made the sauce separately while the ground turkey cooked completely and browned in a pan, then I stirred in the sauce and let it cook into the meat. (medium heat)
I threw a couple of whole wheat buns in the toaster. While I was waiting for them to toast up a bit, I got a big bowl and filled it with about two hefty hand-fulls of Field Greens, tossed in some olive oil(about 2tbs), rice vinegar(about 4tbs), pinch of garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste and then put the servings on their plates.
Buns popped up, threw them on a plate and used a table spoon almost like an icecream scooper, to serve tight portions of the loose meat on the bun. I packed it on and let it spill over a bit onto the plate, then I took the top of the bun and pressed it on to hold the meat in.
Grab a fork, napkin (make that two) and a glass of cold water. It was great!
