Powered byPreparation
- Step 1
Bring water for pasta to a boil.
- Step 2
Chop whole onion and garlic, and saute in one teaspoon of very hot oil in nonstick pan.
- Step 3
Wash, trim, seed and chop whole peppers; add to onions as they cook, and when onion begins to soften, add the sherry, reduce heat and continue cooking until peppers are soft. About two minutes before the peppers are ready, stir in the corn and cook just to heat through.
- Step 4
Meanwhile, drain the beans and rinse thoroughly.
- Step 5
Cook the pasta according to package directions.
- Step 6
Whisk the rest of the oil and the vinegar with the cumin, hot red pepper flakes and turmeric in a bowl large enough to hold all the ingredients.
- Step 7
Cut the turkey into small pieces, and add to the bowl along with the vegetables and beans.
- Step 8
When the pasta is cooked, drain and add to the bowl.

Quinoa instead of orzo for more protein. Served with sweet potato salmon cakes and sprinkled with lemon juice before serving for more flavor.
DeAnn
Doubled the”dressing” and added fresh chopped cilantro for fresh flavor.
Kevin Osinski
Pleasant and fairly straightforward. Next time I'd increase the corn.
