A flavorful, low FODMAP baked dish combining lean turkey, brown rice, and mild chiles, perfect for a comforting meal.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked brown rice (I like to use Birdseye Steamfresh Frozen Brown Rice)
  • 2 tablespoons garlic-infused olive oil
  • 1 20-ounce lean ground turkey
  • 1 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 4 ounces chopped mild green chiles, drained
  • 2 teaspoons low FODMAP taco seasoning (see notes for alternative)
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 to 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese (or dairy-free cheddar-style shreds)

Optional garnishes

  • to taste sliced green onion tops (green parts only)
  • to taste chopped cilantro

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Coat a 9" x 9" baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • Cook the ground turkey in a skillet with garlic-infused oil until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Mix in cooked rice, diced tomatoes, green chiles, taco seasoning, and cumin. Transfer to baking dish and top with cheese.
  • Bake covered for 18-20 minutes, then uncover and bake 5 more minutes until cheese melts. Cool briefly before serving.

Notes

Use garlic-infused oil to keep it low FODMAP. Adjust cheese amount to preference.
