There’s a certain time in winter when I start to crave a good Barbecue.  This overwhelmed me tonight, so I pulled out my grill pan and made this super simple, juicy grilled chicken.  There were no marinades, sauces, or complicated procedures, just chicken breast and some spices.  It is hard to believe that this dish is healthy because of how amazing it tastes!

Sautéed Vegetables with Smoked Turkey

TurkeyStirWhen it comes to healthy and simple, it’s hard to beat this great dish I made last night.  I was surprised by how little effort was necessary to make this fabulous dish.  While white rice was cooking in my rice cooker, I sautéed Red Onion, Green Bell Pepper, and Sliced mushrooms in a bit of olive oil and added in some sliced smoked turkey that was lying in the fridge.  The turkey and vegetables were so flavorful by themselves that I didn’t even add any spices!  If I make this again, I will try to incorporate the rice a bit more by adding into the pot with everything else as opposed to serving it on the side.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Red Onion, Chopped
  • 1 Bell Pepper, sliced without the core and seeds
  • 3 ounces of sliced mushrooms
  • 1 Tablespoon of olive oil
  • 6 slices of smoked Turkey, cut into squares
  • 1 cup (uncooked) of white rice

Makes 2 Servings, Nutritional info per serving: Continue reading “Sautéed Vegetables with Smoked Turkey”
