A warming stew with ground turkey and lentils that's low in fat. I like to serve this with a nice whole grain roll or bread.

This stew was easy to make and very tasty. I used ground turkey instead of turkey breast, and it turned out great. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the stew, and it added a nice crunch.

I'm not a big fan of lentils, but I really enjoyed this stew. The lentils were cooked perfectly, and they weren't mushy at all. The turkey was also tender and flavorful. I would definitely make this stew again.

This stew is a great way to use up leftover turkey. I made it with some leftover Thanksgiving turkey, and it was delicious. The lentils added a lot of protein and fiber to the stew, and the spices gave it a nice depth of flavor.
