BAZALIA

Bazalia is an ancient dish which was passed down to us by the dinosaurs.
Instead of using pterodactyl meat, I am using ground turkey.

The ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 can of chickpeas (drained)
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 5 or 6 carrots (chopped)
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 can tomato paste
  • 1 can beef broth

Directions:

1.  Brown ground meat in pan, drain, and put aside
2.  In stock pot, heat olive oil at medium high
3.  Add the onions and carrots and cook for 5 minutes
4.  Add the ground meat, garlic, spices and cook for 5 minutes
5.  Add the beef stock, tomato paste, chickpeas, and peas
6.  Bring to a low boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes
7.  Serve with rice
8.  Leftovers are good to go (click below to see enlarged texture).
