Cranberry Almond Turkey Salad Recipe

The perfect high protein salad to have on hand all winter, full of hearty herbs with a bit of sweetness and crunch.

Serves: 2 portions

Prep time: 7 mins


Ingredients:

  •  1 ½ cups pulled turkey or chicken meat
  •  ¼ cup dried cranberries or cherries (or cranberries preserves work too)
  •  ⅓ cup roasted salted almonds, chopped
  •  1 large shallot, thinly sliced
  •  1 sprig fresh rosemary, chopped
  •  2 sprigs fresh thyme, chopped

Dressing:

  •  2 Tbsp avocado oil mayo
  •  1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  •  1 tsp honey
  •  1 tsp brown mustard
  •  1 dash cayenne pepper
  •  Sea salt & cracked black pepper

Steps:

  1. Toss all of the turkey salad ingredients together in a bowl.
  2. Whisk all of the dressing ingredients together in a separate bowl.
  3. Pour the dressing over the turkey bowl and toss to coat. 
  4. Serve over greens and beet matchsticks like we did, or in a wrap, or on toast, or just as it is. It also makes a nice full dinner when paired with some white quinoa and greens.
