A more wholesome version of the ever-popular sloppy joe using ground turkey instead of ground beef. You'll get sweetness from the apples, a subtle hint of anise from the tarragon, and a burst of aromatic flavor from the cloves. Be adventuresome, step outside the box, and give it a try! Serve on butter-toasted hamburger buns.

  • 0.75 cups chopped onion
  • 0.75 cups chopped red bell pepper

  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh tarragon leaves
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt , or to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground cloves or to taste
