28 oz. can tomatoes, chopped (keep juice)
½ teaspoon (or more) red pepper flakes
½ cup quinoa (rinsed under cold water)
½ cup parsley, chopped
1 cup chopped cabbage (purple or green)
Instructions
In a large pot over medium heat add a splash of olive oil and add onion. Cook until soft. Add garlic, paprika, and red pepper flakes and sauté for about a minute. Add tomatoes and juice from the can. Stir to combine. Fill the tomato can of water and add to the pot. Stir in quinoa and cabbage. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to simmer for 20 minutes. Add turkey meat during the last 10 minutes of the cooking time. You may need to add more liquid. Stir in parsley and serve.
Notes
The Culinary Chase’s Note: Add as much turkey meat as desired. If the stew looks too dry, add more liquid. Use rice in lieu of quinoa if you don’t have it on hand. This stew is loaded with vitamins and minerals. Enjoy!
