We often forget to cook turkey, reserving it for Christmas and, if you're American, Thanksgiving, but, as we're using cranberries we should use turkey. And why wouldn't you when this dish can be whipped up in minutes. With the sauce made, the turkey and greens can be cooked in 10 minutes and dinner will be on the table in less than 30 minutes.

Ingredients
200 grams green beans
¼ cup olive oil
1½ tbsp cranberry sauce, (see recipe list)
4 large handfuls mixed green leaves
½ cup walnut pieces, dry roasted
Method

Brush the tenderloins with olive oil. Heat a grill pan and sear for 2 -3 minutes each side. Transfer to a baking sheet and place in the oven for 5 minutes to cook through. Remove from the oven, cover with foil and leave to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. While the turkey is cooking, steam the green beans for 5 minutes until tender. Rinse under cold water and set aside.

Combine the olive oil, balsamic and cranberry sauce together. Toss ½ the dressing over the mixed green leaves and beans.
Cut the turkey breast into 8 slices and arrange over the leaves. Pour the remaining dressing over the turkey and sprinkle the walnuts on top.

Note : Gram for gram turkey is lower in energy, higher in protein, with almost half the saturated fat of chicken.
