Phew! It’s a good thing I don’t have such a phobia or else I would DEFINITELY starve to death… I would never dance like a stripper rock out to Dark Horse or Anaconda*…

And…

I would have never given my taste buds the opportunity to ingest such bliss that is… The entire muffin tray of TURBUTKLE BITES

While it might sound like I am eating the latest HOT fashion accessory (A hat perhaps?)… I’m actually eating something far more “in season”! The late Joan Rivers would even approve!

Turkey, Butternut Squash and Kale Bites

Here’s what you need: 

  • 1.25 pounds of ground turkey

  • 3 tbs cinnamon
  • stevia, optional

Do the Turbutkle Dance… AKA: Here’s how to make them:

  • Roast peeled and chopped butternut squash in oven at 350 degrees for about an hour (check on it and stir after 30 minutes).
  • Mix ground turkey with steamed kale, butternut squash and cinnamon.
  • Pour in egg whites and stir.
  • Distribute into non-stick muffin tray.
  • Bake turbutkles in oven at 350 for about 20 minutes. 
  • Sprinkle with stevia, drizzle coconut oil on top… AND SHOVEL IN YOUR MOUTH LIKE IT’S THANKSGIVING

SO TELL ME…

  • Do you dream about Turkey Day 365 days of the year?
  • What’s your favorite #StrangeButGood recipe creation?
  • When you hear TURBUTKLE, what’s the first thing that comes to mind?
  • What’s your favorite holiday? 
  • What 3 foods would you mush together to create your favorite holiday in one bite?
  • Would you rather have Nicki Minaj’s booty and Katy Perry’s boobs? – Same question for the gents reading this too, HA HA AH! 

*I have never and will never listen to Nicki Minaj’s song: Anaconda… Nope. Never. Sorry. No. I’m not sorry actually. I’d rather dive into a pool of lava without a silver, fire retardant and heat-resistant suit.
