Ground turkey gets a bright, savory treatment here — seared until golden, then finished with fresh ginger, orange zest, and a splash of orange juice that turns into a sticky, fragrant glaze right in the pan. It all lands on a big bowl of crisp romaine, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red bell pepper, tossed in a lime and olive oil dressing that's tangy with just a whisper of honey. Creamy avocado slices and a scatter of toasted pumpkin seeds round out the texture, giving every bite some richness and crunch alongside the warm, spiced turkey. Lean protein, good olive oil, fresh vegetables, and citrus in every component make this a genuinely satisfying fit for a Mediterranean-style plate. It's the kind of dinner-salad that eats like a full meal, and it comes together fast enough for a weeknight without skimping on flavor.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, honey, cumin, and salt until the honey is fully dissolved and the dressing is emulsified. Set aside.
Heat the avocado oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it into small crumbles with a spatula, for 6–8 minutes until no pink remains and the turkey registers 165°F (74°C) on an instant-read thermometer.
