Turkey Tacos


We are officially big fans of ground turkey. There are so many different things you can do with it and it is a nice change from chicken. Ground turkey makes great burgers, sloppy joes and tacos! There isn't anything super special about these tacos. Other than the fact that they are made with homemade pico, guacomole a fresh rice, these tacos are basically like regular ground beef tacos. That's right! These tacos were made with a packet of taco seasoning. We were in need of a quick, simple meal. Mexican food always seems to hit the spot. I made the pico by dicing up 4 roma tomatoes, slicing 3 scallions, juicing 1/2 lime, chopping up some cilantro and adding a slight sprinkling of salt and tossing everything together. I like to let it sit overnight to let the flavors soak through. Once the pico and guacamole are made, we layer the tacos in this order: Cheese, taco meat, non-fat plain yogurt, guacamole, pico and olives. Wrap it all up in a tortilla and enjoy!! These make for a great week night meal!
