My name is Kevin. My life changed when I realized that healthy living is truly a lifelong journey, mainly won by having a well-balanced diet and enjoying adequate exercise. By experimenting in the kitchen and openly sharing my meals, I learned that healthy eating is hardly boring and that by making a few adjustments, I could design a diet that could help me achieve my personal fitness goals. Our bodies are built in the kitchen and sculpted in the gym.

Ingredients
Ingredients for 4 servings
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1/3 cup green onion
- 2 teaspoons ginger
- 1lb ground turkey (OR ground chicken)
- 6 cups raw broccoli slaw (OR 5 cups shredded cabbage & 1 cup shredded carrots)
- Sauce
- 1 cup pineapple juice (use juice from crushed pineapple so it’s ok if pieces are in it but it should be mainly liquid)
- 2 tablespoons ketchup OR 2 tablespoons sriracha (or more/less to taste)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1/3 cup rice vinegar
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 1/2 tablespoons arrowroot starch (or corn starch or tapioca flour)
- Garnish
- chopped green onion
Steps
- Set a large nonstick skillet or wok on medium heat. Once hot, add oil, garlic, ginger and green onion. Cook until the oil is flavored and fragrant, about 2 to 3 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high heat.
- Add the ground turkey and chop it up in the skillet as it cooks, folding everything together. When the turkey is almost cooked, about 6 minutes, toss in the broccoli slaw or shredded cabbage.
- Continuously fold everything together until the broccoli and cabbage has slightly wilted and decreased in size. Pour the egg roll into a large bowl, then set it back on medium heat.
- Mix together the ingredients for the sauce.
- Pour it into the skillet. Bring it to a gentle simmer, about 1 minutes, and stir continuously so it doesn’t clump or get slimy. REMOVE the skillet from the heat as soon as you see it start to simmer and continue to stir.
- Pour it over the egg roll bowl and toss/fold everything together. Alternatively, you can just have the sauce as a side.
- Enjoy the bowl by itself or with steamed cauliflower rice to make it even more plant-strong and low-carb.
