Curried Turkey with Couscous


Tuesday, April 12, 2005

This dinner came about because of a boredom with my usual flavors. I can get into a rut with dinner, using the same flavors over and over and over...

I'm blessed with a huge spice rack, so the seasonings were available. We had the couscous and orange flavored Crasins in our pantry. The fruitiness of the crazins really offsets the spices and veggies.

Curried Turkey with Couscous
8 oz. Lean Ground Turkey
1 med. Sweet Onion, diced
1 med. Green Pepper, diced
3/4 cup Crasins
1/4 tsp. Curry
1/4 tsp. Cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
3 cups prepared Couscous

Spray skillet with non-stick spray or oil from an oil spritzer. Saute the first four ingredients until the turkey is browned and the onions and peppers are soft. Add seasoning, stir, cover and cook for a few minutes more over low heat to meld the flavors.

Prepare 3 cups of Couscous according to package directions. I used Near East brand, which is available at my local megamart.

Serve 1/3 of turkey mixture with 1 cup of couscous. As far as WW points are concerned, when I made it it came out to 10 points total (6 for the turkey, 4 for the couscous).

The parsley on top isn't necessary, but makes for a nice picture!
