20 minThink turkey is just for sandwiches? Think again.
This lightened-up spread puts cooked turkey breast through the food processor with onion, then folds in grated carrots, chopped apple, and a whisper of curry powder that ties everything together with warm, aromatic depth.
Low-fat yogurt and just a tablespoon of mayo keep it creamy without the guilt, while a squeeze of lemon juice brightens every bite.
Serve it chilled on crackers, stuffed into celery sticks, or spread across warm naan for a nod to those curry-forward flavors.
Kitchen Tips
- Chill the spread for at least 30 minutes before serving so the flavors meld together properly.
- Use a tart apple like Granny Smith for the best contrast against the curry and yogurt.
- Leftover Thanksgiving turkey works beautifully here, giving those holiday scraps new life.
- For extra crunch, toss in a tablespoon of finely chopped toasted walnuts or pecans.
