Where the River Runs Dry

My way of venting out my exhaustions, confusions, excitements, and aggrevations in my world & those in and around it.

15-Minute Turkey Tacos

Everybody thinks it takes a long time to fix a healthy meal. Try doing it with your kids, and give them a job to do, like chopping up the lettuce and tomatoes. I have three words for you: basic, fast, and easy!

Ingredients

  • 1 pounds turkey, lean ground
  • 1 packet(s) taco seasoning mix
  • 2 cup(s) cheese, cheddar, low-fat, shredded
  • 3 cup(s) lettuce, shredded
  • 2 cup(s) tomato(es), chopped
  • 4 taco shells (corn)
  • 1 cup(s) salsa

Preparation

Brown the turkey in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoning according to the packet. Build your tacos—shell, turkey, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and sauce or salsa. Yum!

More Info:

Be sure to read package labels carefully! I buy only organic taco seasoning, so there aren’t any weird chemicals or extra sodium. And I look for taco brands without partially hydrogenated oils.
