While the vegetables roast, brown your turkey in a skillet and season with garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, paprika, and a little sage or poultry seasoning.

For the finishing touch, mix together the maple syrup and Dijon mustard to create a quick sweet-and-savory maple-Dijon drizzle.

Once everything is ready, layer your roasted vegetables and turkey into a bowl, then top with dried cranberries and pumpkin seeds. Drizzle with your maple-Dijon sauce and enjoy!
