Make
- Heat oven to 400F (204C) degrees. Place portobellos onto a sheet pan and brush both sides with some cooking oil (not listed in ingredients). Roast for 14 to 18 minutes until tender.
- Place carrots into a microwave-safe container. Cover with a wet paper towel and microwave for 3 to 4 ½ minutes until tender but still crunchy.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add in cooking oil and then garlic. Once you can smell the garlic, add in ground turkey, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon. Saute until broken into smaller pieces, 4 to 6 minutes. Add in crushed tomatoes and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes until meat gets cooked through.
- Whisk together cumin and coriander (for carrots) with honey, vinegar, cilantro, and olive oil. Toss with warmed carrots.
- Serve turkey over mushrooms and top with pico de gallo. Enjoy with carrots. Remember to save ½ the turkey for Thursday’s dinner.
