- 1/2lb 93% lean ground turkey (or 3/8 lb if using cooked)
- 3 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger (or fresh)
- Sauce
- 5 tablespoons powdered peanut butter
- 4 tablespoons low sodium Tamari

Steps
Step 1
Mix together the ingredients for the sauce and set aside.
Step 2
Set a nonstick skillet on medium high heat. Once hot, lightly spray with avocado oil then add the prepped ground turkey.
Step 3
Chop it up as it heats in the skillet, we need to rehydrate it so it’s juicier. Add orange juice, teriyaki sauce and ginger – once it is heated, it’s ready for the burrito!
Warm a tortilla in the microwave for 30 seconds to help soften it.
Add the turkey, veggies, and peanut sauce to each burrito.
