By gpawilson

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 medium onion
• 1 red pepper
• kosher salt
• Pepper
• 2 clove garlic
• 1 medium carrot
• 1 package lean ground turkey
• 1 tbsp. chili powder
• 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
• 1 can tomato sauce
• 1/4 c. sweet relish
• 1 tbsp. red wine vinegar
• 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
• 4 slice country bread
• Chopped flat-leaf parsley
• Mixed green salad

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and red pepper, season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes.
Add the garlic and carrot and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the chili powder and cinnamon and cook for 1 minute.
Add the tomato sauce and relish and simmer until beginning to thicken, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Spoon the turkey mixture over the toast and sprinkle with parsley. Serve with a salad, if desired.
