Chef's Note
For meal prep, you can cook the turkey mixture ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just reheat and assemble with fresh lettuce when ready to eat. If you prefer less spice, reduce or omit the sriracha and add a tablespoon of hoisin sauce for sweetness instead.
