Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup cauliflower rice

Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the ground turkey, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to combine the flavors.
- While the turkey cooks, prepare the cauliflower rice according to package instructions or sauté in a separate pan for about 5 minutes until tender.
- In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and chopped parsley to create a tzatziki sauce.
- To assemble the bowls, start with a base of cauliflower rice, then top with the cooked turkey, diced cucumber, diced tomatoes, and red onion.
- Drizzle the tzatziki sauce over the top and serve immediately.
Notes
- For added flavor, try marinating the ground turkey in the spices for 30 minutes before cooking.
- You can also substitute the cauliflower rice with shredded lettuce for a refreshing crunch.
