Creamy Zesty Turkey Pasta Salad
Sautéed ground turkey and chickpea pasta tossed in a velvety lemon-yogurt dressing with crisp cucumbers and juicy tomatoes for a refreshing bite.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz ground turkey
1.5 oz chickpea rotini pasta
0.25 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
0.5 cup cucumber
2 tbsp red onion
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente.
While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground turkey and minced garlic.
Sauté the turkey, breaking it up with a spatula, until fully browned and cooked through, then season with half of the salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, and the remaining salt and pepper until smooth.
Halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the cucumber, and finely mince the red onion.
Drain the pasta and place it in a large mixing bowl with the cooked turkey and chopped vegetables.
Pour the creamy lemon dressing over the mixture and toss well to coat every ingredient evenly.
