A friend invited me to a Girls Dish Night where we all brought a main dish and recipe and shared. So yummy. This was one of the dishes served. Delicious, not too long to make, and pretty healthy. The kids enjoyed it too. We doubled it for our family.
- 10 oz raw lean ground turkey
- 2 Italian Chicken Sausage Links
- 1/2 cup + 2 TBS dry white Jasmine rice
- 1 1/2 cup vegetable stock
- 2 cups spinach, chopped
- 1 shallot, sliced
- 1/2 clove garlic, minced
Toppings:
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- grated Parmesan cheese
- cilantro, for garnish
- Cook the rice according to the directions on the package, using vegetable stock for the liquid
- Preheat oven to 400. Peel and cube butternut squash. Place on a baking sheet, lined with parchment paper. Spray the tops with cooking spray and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes, flipping halfway. Set aside.
- In a large skillet or pan, brown the ground turkey over medium heat. Once browned, add shallots and garlic, sliced chicken sausage, and chopped spinach. Cook until the garlic is fragrant, the sausage is browned, and the spinach is wilted. Turn heat down to low.
- Add the cooked rice and roasted butternut squash to the skillet and stir until well combined. Serve and garnish as desired.
