Lemony Turkey Primavera Skillet

Lemony Turkey Primavera Skillet
Recipe Tip
Let's Talk Turkey
Turkey breast is a lean protein that supplies amino acids that give structure to the body in skin, cell membranes and muscles.
Substitution
One pound of boneless skinless chicken breast halves can be used in place of the turkey breast slices in this recipe.
Did You Know?
Garlic-pepper blend is a combination of garlic powder, salt and pepper. Look for the seasoning in the dry spices and herbs section of the grocery store. Or use 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper in place of the garlic-pepper blend.

very good
I made this and it went over very well.. My kids actually ate it too. My carrots were moldy so we didnt get to try it with them. :( I added fresh green beans though. My 9 yr old said it was a lil too lemony, but I have never cooked with lemon, so I am sure it was just the new flavor. He ate it though. Good recipe and fairly easy.
