I won a cooking contest with the first version of this salad. This variation was a big hit too. Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey |
1/2 cup chopped red onion |
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic |
1/2 lb chopped bell pepper (red and yellow) |
1 cup salsa, of choice |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 tablespoon dried basil |
1/2 tablespoon dried dill |
1 small chipotle pepper, minced |
1 large romaine lettuce |
1/4 cup fresh pineapple, chopped |
2 small nectarines, chopped |
1/4 fresh snow pea, blanched |
1/2 cup sliced seedless cucumber |
1/2 lb roma tomato |
1/2 cup shredded goat cheese |
blue corn tortilla chips |
Directions:
1. Mince the garlic and chop the peppers and onion, putting them into a large pan with room for the turkey. Add the olive oil and herbs and saute'.
2. When the vegetables wilt, add the turkey and cook until the turkey is browned. Drain if necessary, and then add the salsa and allow to heat thru on lowered temperature.
3. While the meat is cooking, prepare your greens, fruit, tomatoes, snow peas and cucumber, plating individually or on a large platter as preferred.
4. Shred the goat cheese and set aside.
5. When all is ready, place turkey on the salad, add the shredded goat cheese, and edge with chips. Enjoy!
