Hi everyone,

Thought I would share a recipe that I threw together tonight and it came out really good and only 317 calories per serving!!! Recipe makes 4 serviings

1 pound ground turkey (I used 93/7 for the recipe)
1 package Uncle Bens Microway Basmati Rice
1 sweet red pepper
1 bunch green onions
1 can sliced water chestnuts
1 pkg Chi Chi's Restraunt brand taco seasoning mix (or feel free to use your own seasonings)

Add turkey to skillet, season with 1/2 of taco seasoning and cook through. Once cooked add all veggies and cook to desired doneness (I like mine crisp, so mine was about 5 minutes) While turkey and veggie mix cooks, microwave basmatti rice.
Once veggies are done add basmatti rice to mix, add in remaining taco seasoning mix and stir to mix.

Time from start to table was about 15 minutes for me. Makes 4 serviings 315 calories per serving (per recipe calculator)

Hope you enjoy it, I sure did, I will be making it again soon!

    Sounds great. But then, how can a recipe with "Mess" in the name be anything else? :)

    Thanks for sharing.
