Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 cup cauliflower rice
- 1 cup diced mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, and corn)
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 package (8 oz) almond flour pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add ground turkey to the skillet, cooking until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Stir in cauliflower rice, mixed vegetables, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheddar cheese until melted and well combined.
- Roll out the almond flour pie crust and cut it into circles to fit into a muffin tin. Press the circles into the muffin cups.
- Fill each crust with the turkey and vegetable mixture, then top with additional cheese if desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños to the turkey mixture.
- Substitute ground turkey with shredded rotisserie chicken for a quicker option.
