2 garlic cloves; pressed
1 lb ground turkey

Cucumber Sauce:
1/2 cup Plain non fat yogurt
2 garlic cloves pressed
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/4 fresh cucumbers finely chopped

Preheat oven to 500. Mix onion, parsley,garlic cloves, turkey, thyme, salt
and pepper separate into 4 rectangle small loaves.In a skillet warm the olive oil and brown each side of each loaf. place in a shallow casserole dish and bake at 500* until the center is brown.. (About 20 minutes or so)

While these are cooking make the cucumber sauce by combining all the ingredients place in the refrigerator

Microwave the naan (25 seconds).. thinly slice the turkey loaves placing the slices on each naan. Top with mozzarella cheese cucumber sauce tomato and cucumbers.. ENJOY
