Whole30 Asian Ground Turkey Stir-fry Recipe

Stir-fries are probably the easiest meal to make while following a Whole30 in my opinion since they can be made with almost any combination of veggies and meat once you have a stir-fry sauce that you like. Since typical stir-fry sauces are full of sugar and soy, when you make a Whole30 compliant sauce you have to kick up the flavors with plenty of garlic and ginger to make sure the sauce still pops. In place of soy sauce, coconut aminos are the perfect substitution and it has a similar salty, umami flavor. If you crave a sweet sauce, you could add some fresh orange juice or some diced dates for sweetness, but I honestly don't think it is needed. Then everything is quickly cooked and if you like things spicy, topped with a Whole30 friendly Asian hot sauce like sambal olek.

This is one of my go-to recipes that my husband and I love. It’s like perfect comfort food for us. Leftovers make it even better! Yum!

Cashew dressing from Trader Joe’s on top makes it deluxe!

Loved it! Perfect for getting rid of some veggies in the fridge too. Wishing I had some sriracha in the fridge - next time! For a kick I added Thai Red Curry paste
