Asian Turkey Wraps

Made these delicious little wraps for dinner on Monday. It was simple, super tasty, and I think kids would love it too! Who doesn't love eating with your hands?

Asian Turkey Wraps

1) Dice up whatever Asian-style veggies you desire in the mix. I used carrots (1/2 cup), shallots (1 small), half a spicy pepper, and bamboo shoots (half a can). Water chestnuts would be good, so would snap peas, shiitake mushrooms, or anything crispy. Make the diced pieces really small.

2) Cook the diced carrots in about 1/2 cup water for about 4 minutes, or until the water is all dissolved into the carrots.

3) Add the rest of the veggies, and 1 package (20 oz) of ground turkey meat, 2 tbl of chopped fresh ginger, and 1 or 2 chopped garlic cloves.

4) Add the tasty sauce.... 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce, 1/4 cup hoisin sauce, 3 Tbl smooth peanut butter, 1 Tbl sesame oil, 1 Tbl rice vinegar.

5) Cook mixture until the meat is fully cooked (about 5-10 minutes) on medium-high heat.

6) Scope into pieces of iceberg lettuce leaves and top with chopped cilantro.

ENJOY!

Roasted Tomato Soup

1) Toss together the following

• 5 lb Tomatoes, stemmed and quartered
• 6-8 cloves of Garlic
• About 1/4 cup of Olive Oil
• Salt and freshly ground Pepper
• I usually add a couple basil leaves to the mixture

2) Roast the tomato mixture in a pre-heated oven at 450 degrees for about 40-45 minutes. The tomatoes should be very soft and a lot of liquid should have seeped out of the tomatoes.

3) Saute the following in a large pot on the stove

• 2 tbs Olive Oil
• 1-1/2 cups Sweet Onions (I used Walla Walla's

4) After the Onions are soft, add the following ingredients

• 2 tbs Sugar
• Kosher salt (to your taste...I use about a teaspoon)
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (triple it if you want it spicy)
• Roasted Tomato mixture

5) Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low and let the soup simmer for 15 minutes.

6) Puree the soup in a blender or food processor until smooth.

7) After blended, add 1/2 -3/4 cup heavy cream.

8) Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
