This turkey bowl with wholegrain couscous and pomegranate is a fresh, colourful dish that lifts your mood straight away. Lean turkey strips seasoned with ras el hanout, fluffy couscous, peppery rocket and glistening pomegranate seeds come together under a creamy lemon-yoghurt dressing.

In the maintenance Phase 4 you're looking for meals that are light yet satisfying, and this bowl delivers exactly that. The lean turkey brings plenty of protein for muscle maintenance and a full feeling, whilst the wholegrain couscous provides fibre-rich, measured carbohydrates. The peppery rocket and fresh lemon-yoghurt dressing keep it light, whilst a hint of fruit from the pomegranate makes it a festive meal that perfectly fits a high-protein diet.

Lovely with a handful of roasted almonds or pistachios for extra crunch. A sprig of fresh mint through the bowl adds a refreshing touch, and a spoonful of hummus on the side makes it even creamier and more filling.

Zo maak je het

  1. Soak the wholemeal couscous in boiling water and season with half the lemon juice.
  2. Fry the turkey slices with ras el hanout in the olive oil until cooked.
  3. Whisk the yoghurt with the remaining lemon juice to make a dressing.
  4. Divide the couscous and rocket between two bowls.
  5. Arrange the turkey and pomegranate seeds on top.
  6. Spoon the yoghurt dressing over and serve.

Bewaren

The couscous and roasted turkey keep separately for 2 to 3 days in the fridge. Keep the dressing separate and add it with the pomegranate just before serving.

Variatietips

Swap the turkey for chicken or grilled halloumi. Vary the pomegranate with chunks of mango or dried apricot for a different fruity note.
