    To start, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 pound of ground turkey. Cook it, breaking it apart, for about 5-7 minutes until it’s browned.

    While the turkey is cooking, finely chop 1 cup of shiitake mushrooms, 1 bell pepper, 1 carrot, and 3 stalks of green onion.

    Once the turkey is browned, add the chopped vegetables to the skillet and stir well. Let them cook together for about 5-7 minutes until the veggies are tender.
