I grew up in the deep south. From a very young age I began eating barbecue sandwiches with slaw. This is a lighter version using turkey. The recipe says you can sub 1 pound of country breakfast pork chops ground in the food processor; but I have never done that. This recipe comes from Southern Living Low-Fat Recipes, January 1997.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 cups finely shredded red cabbage
1/2 cup granny smith apple, cored and finely chopped
1 large carrot, shredded
1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt
3/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
6 whole wheat hamburger buns
Directions:
1. Over medium heat, cook turkey and onion in a nonstick skillet until browned, stirring until turkey crumbles, drain.
2. Add the tomato sauce and next 5 ingredients.
3. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes, stirring often.
4. Split and lightly toast the hamburger buns.
5. Combine the cabbage and next 5 ingredients in a bowl.
6. Spoon the turkey mixture on to the bottom halves of the toasted buns; top with slaw mixture and top halves of buns.
7. Serve immediately with baked beans and crisp vegetable sticks.
