Serve this fabulous finger food at parties or as a light lunch
Think ground turkey is strictly for chili and burgers? We’ve got delicious news for you! With lean turkey as the base, combining the soy sauce, ginger, scallions, jalapeno and cilantro serves up fantastic flavor as well as health-promoting phytonutrients. Served in crunchy, healthy cabbage cups and topped with peanuts, these are a treat to eat.
