Asian style...

Rainbow slaw - (broccoli, carrot, cabbage) - one 12oz bag
Fresh garlic - 2 cloves, minced
Fresh ginger - 1"cube, minced
Rice vinegar - 1/4 cup
Soy sauce, light - 1/4 cup
Sesame oil - 1 tbsp

1. Brown turkey in large skillet on medium heat.
2. Add slaw mix, garlic, and ginger, stir to combine, and cook for 5 minutes.
3. Mix together vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil and pour over turkey/slaw mixture, stir to combine.
4. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, depending on how soft you want the veggies. 

Makes 2 servings.
