Healthy Roasted Vegetable Medley Recipe
This dish features ground turkey sautéed with a colorful mix of roasted bell peppers, zucchini, and tomatoes. The recipe takes about 45 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 2 bell peppers (any color), diced
- 1 medium zucchini, diced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Mexican or Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil or cilantro for garnish (optional)
- 1 can of black beans, drained (optional if using Mexican seasoning)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine the diced bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Roast the Vegetables: Spread the vegetable mixture on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Cook the Turkey: While the vegetables are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it apart with a spatula (about 5-7 minutes). Season with salt and pepper.
- Combine and Serve: Once the vegetables are done roasting, combine them with the cooked ground turkey in the skillet. Stir to mix well and heat through. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
- Serve hot as a main dish or over rice or quinoa.
