Instructies
- 1.Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 2.Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- 3.Stir in the diced bell pepper, zucchini, rinsed quinoa, dried oregano, and dried thyme. Mix well to combine.
