I absolutely love tacos! Well Mexican food in general. I could eat a ship load of those chips and salsa they give you before you even order, amiright? Dominic and I don't go out to eat very often, so we greatly enjoy our taco routine. I make these tacos at least once a week and most of the time leftovers on another night. This recipe is easy, quick, and fits into my 21 Day Fix meal plan...a winner! Ingredients you'll need: 1 lb of ground turkey Assorted veggies Taco spices Romaine lettuce or spinach Avocado Salsa Greek Yogurt Brown the ground turkey in a medium to large skillet. I added a wee bit of EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil, any Rachael Ray fans out there?) and the ground turkey meat to the pan and let it do its thing. Side note: Do ya'll like to have little pieces of ground meat or bigger chunks? It's a forever battle between me and Dom. I vote larger chunks. Chop/dice your assorted veggies. This time I used red onions, mushrooms, and yellow/red/orange bell peppers and tomatoes. Green peppers, jalapenos, yellow/white onion, squash, zucchini...really any 'green container' veggie would also be great here. You can also use corn and black beans but those are yellow containers so plan accordingly. Add the veggies to the turkey when its almost completely browned. Add a teeny weeny bit of EVOO if needed to sautee the veggies with the turkey. Add the spices to the turkey/veggie mixture. Garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and cayenne powder are in most taco flavor packets. Using and adding the spices separately reduces unnecessary excess salt. Add about 1/4 cup water to mix all of the spices together with the mixture. Continue cooking the mixture until most of the water has cooked off. Mmmmm! It's ready! Measure out 2 Green containers of romaine lettuce, 1 Blue of avocado, and 1 Red container of the turkey mixture Add a little salsa to the top for 'dressing' and wahlaaaa! Yummy and awesome turkey taco salad!
