Buffalo Turkey Sandwich and Salad

So I eat taco salad about once a week but thought I would try something a little bit different so I flavored the meat with a buffalo cream sauce instead of taco seasoning.  You can eat this as a sandwich or as a salad.  Makes 4 large salads or enough for 8 Oopsie sandwiches.

Mix together kick ass base ingredients. You will only be using 1/4 cup for this recipe so store the rest in an air tight container for other recipes. See note below.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat stir together kick ass base and 1 cup water.  Whisk until thickened.  Stir in buffalo sauce.  Set aside.

Place a large skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Cook turkey until halfway done breaking up large pieces then add in onion and green pepper cook stirring until the onion is softened and browned, about 6 minutes. Add buffalo sauce mixture.  Stir until combined and heated through.

Serve on an oopsie roll or as a large salad.

Note: You can add 1 ½ tsp chicken or beef granules to 1/3 cup base with 1 ¼ cup water to make a creamy soup.
