Cookware

chef's knife · colander · cutting board · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · nonstick skillet · spatula · stirring spoon

Directions

  1. Mix the ground turkey, shredded carrots, bread crumbs, one egg, and Italian seasoning until just combined in a medium bowl; form the mixture into 1/2-inch-thick fritters using a 1/4-cup measure and place them on a plate.
  2. Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add a light coating of oil to the skillet and swirl to coat the bottom; place the fritters in the pan and cook, turning once, until evenly browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  4. While the fritters cook, wash the grape tomatoes, dry them, and halve them lengthwise; transfer to a clean bowl.
  5. Wash and trim the sugar snap peas, cut them crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces, and add to the bowl with the tomatoes.
  6. Roughly chop the Kalamata olives and stir them into the bowl along with the tzatziki and a pinch of salt to make the salad.
  7. To serve, divide the fritters with the salad on the plates and dollop extra tzatziki over the fritters before eating.

Two tips

  • Prep ahead by chopping olives and vegetables up to the day before, then store in the fridge for quick assembly.
  • If you have extra tzatziki, serve a little on the side to dip the fritters or to spoon over the salad.
