Description

A quick and nutritious protein skillet packed with lean turkey, vibrant vegetables, and creamy goodness, perfect for busy nights or meal prep.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup of diced turkey or chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup of broccoli florets
  • 1/4 cup of diced bell pepper (any color)
  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • Garlic powder, to taste
  • Smoked paprika, to taste

  5. Lower the heat and stir in the Greek yogurt or cream cheese until creamy.
