Greek-Inspired Ground Turkey Salad

Recipe by Fayette Nyehn
This Greek-Inspired Ground Turkey Salad is crunchy and great for the warmer months. This is one of the salads I'll be making on repeat this summer because it's delicious and loaded with crunchy vegetables and ground turkey. I also appreciate the fact that it's extremely easy to make.
