2. While quinoa is cooking, spray skillet and place on med-high heat. Add garlic and ground turkey. Break up meat and add your Chili Powder and Cumin as it browns. Before all the way cooked through, add your can of Rotel (I leave the juices in). Adjust seasonings to taste. NOTE: You could certainly use fresh onions, jalapenos and tomatoes if you wish. Measure out 1.5 green containers worth. I’m keeping it simple ;here for myself because that works for me! ;
