Let’s get cooking!

Easy to find ingredients

This bowl is incredibly easy to make using just a handful of everyday ingredients. All you need is a package of lean ground turkey, a bag of frozen riced cauliflower, and some frozen broccoli florets—no fancy shopping trips required. These freezer staples cook up fast and make this a convenient, weeknight-friendly meal. Just brown the turkey, steam the veggies, and toss everything in bowl. That’s as easy as it is healthy.

Start by whipping up your sugar-free teriyaki sauce—it’s surprisingly simple and adds all the flavor to this dish. Just combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, a splash of sesame oil, water, garlic, ginger, and a pinch of red pepper flakes in a small saucepan. For sweetness without the sugar, add a tablespoon or two of Brown Sugar Swerve. To get that classic thick teriyaki texture, we will use a little xanthan gum.

The trick to using xanthan gum is to mix it with a little oil first. Make a slurry and then pour it in to the liquid.

Next, brown your ground turkey in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks until it’s no longer pink. Once fully cooked, set it aside. In the same pan, add your frozen riced cauliflower and cook for about 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it’s softened and lightly browned for extra flavor. While the cauliflower rice is cooking, pop your frozen broccoli into the microwave and steam it according to package directions—quick, hands-off, and perfectly tender every time.

Once everything is cooked, it’s time to build your bowl. Start with a base of the warm cauliflower rice, then layer on the browned turkey and steamed broccoli. Drizzle your homemade sugar-free teriyaki sauce generously over the top, and give everything a gentle toss if you like your flavors well mixed. Garnish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds or chopped green onions if desired, and enjoy a flavorful, balanced meal that’s ready in under 30 minutes!
