Turkey Tacos

Servings – 10 Prep Time – 15 Minutes Cook Time – 20 Minutes

Ingredients:


Ground Turkey

  • 3lbs ground turkey

  • 1 tbsp black pepper

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 tbsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp chili powder

  • 2 tsp paprika

  • 1 packet sazon Spanish seasoning

  • 1/4 cup water


Topping Tacos (Assorted toppings of choice. I chose the following.)

  • Shredded lettuce

  • Diced tomatoes

  • Sliced black olives

  • Sliced or mashed avocado

  • Sour cream

  • Shredded cheddar cheese

  • Taco sauce

  • Taco shells

  • Lowcarb tortillas


Instructions:


Preheat a large skillet on medium-high heat.


Add in ground turkey. Chop and break up ground turkey, season with garlic, salt, pepper, sazon, chili powder, and paprika, mix well. Stirring occasionally, cook until browned.


Add in water, lowering heat to a simmer. Stir occasionally until water evaporates and meat thickens slightly with a “sauce” look.


Assemble tacos adding ground meat to shells and tortillas topping with your choice of toppings.


Make a double layer taco by adding shredded cheese to a tortilla and placing in microwave for 20 seconds to melt. Add a hard taco shell to one half of tortilla folding other half over shell.


Fill with your choice of toppings.


"If you prefer hard shell tacos, play with your food and change it up! Remember this will change the macro numbers from the low carb tortillas originally in this recipe."
