Texican Turkey Tacos



We are all about ground turkey at our house-turkey burgers, turkey tacos, turkey spaghetti, turkey casserole, turkey sausage-we adore it!  Daring the recent ground turkey salmonella incidents, we decided to use ground turkey twice in one week (I know, I'm sure you're all shocked).  This time we went with turkey tacos, with a Texican twist! :)

Taco Meat:

1 lb ground turkey
2 tablespoons red pepper
Sea salt and ground black pepper to taste (A used about a tablespoon of each)
1-2 teaspoons each chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper
We also used about a tablespoon of a premixed fajita seasoning that we have that was picked up from a local vendor



Put all of these things into a large bowl and mix them up-use your hands (wash 'em first!) and don't be afraid to get dirty because ground turkey gets quite sticky! Another way to do this would be to put the turkey into a pan, and sprinkle the seasonings onto it as it cooks.

To garnish our tacos we used chopped iceberg lettuce, diced roma tomatoes, diced red onions, sliced avocado, shredded cheese, and chopped green onions.


Add or subtract toppings to your liking, and most importantly: DON'T BE AFRAID TO BE CREATIVE!

Because a taco is pretty much a complete dinner in a shell, we paired ours with tortilla chips and salsa and called it done! Enjoy.:)
