Notes

Prep the vegetables and sauce before cooking the turkey so the bowls come together fast.

For meal prep, store the rice, turkey, vegetables, and sauce in separate containers for the best texture.

Add extra sriracha or a splash of lime juice at serving time if you want a brighter, spicier bowl.
