Ground turkey, just like ground beef, is an affordable source of protein and is very versatile. On top of that turkey is loaded with L-Tryptophan. This amino acid could potentially help regulate mood and cognition. In addition, that study suggests the L-Tryptophan may have to affect mood and cognition by stimulating the gut microbiome. Also not to mention this Cajun Ground Turkey is loaded with mineral selenium.

Besides delicious flavor, this Cajun Ground Turkey has solid macros. For one 4 oz serving of this recipe you would get the following:

Enjoy with some cauliflower rice and some broccoli. That’s what I did, but feel free to mix it with whatever you please. This can last up to 4 days in the fridge. That way you have those Cajun flavors all throughout the week.
