Try it tonight and let me know what you think!!
This recipe makes 4 servings.
Ingredients:
1 lb. lean ground turkey (at least 93% lean) browned
1 small onion diced
1/2 normal sized low sodium taco seasoning packet
1/2 cup of water
4 oz. low sodium taco sauce
diced tomato
chopped kale
1 red container of plain Greek yogurt
2 blue containers of low fat cheddar cheese
4 hard corn taco shells
Directions:
Brown ground turkey and onion in a pan over medium high heat.
Drain off the liquid and add 1/2 taco seasoning packet with 1/2 c water. Stir until combined.
Add taco sauce and stir.
Place 4 taco shells inside of a zip lock bag, pound with a mallet until crunched up into small pieces, then layer an 8x8 baking dish with 1/2 of the crunched up taco shells.
Pour a layer of 1/2 of the ground meat mixture in an even layer.
Layer 1/2 of the greek yogurt using a spatula to smooth it out and spread it evenly across the mixture.
Spread 1 blue container of the cheddar cheese mixture in an even layer.
Spread a second layer of the crunched shells using what's left in the bag.
Pour the rest of the ground meat mixture.
Spread the rest of the Greek yogurt again using the spatula.
Lastly, sprinkle the remaining blue container of cheddar cheese on top.
Once baked, I top mine with a green container full of chopped kale and tomatoes. And since I cannot have cheese, I leave out the cheese layer on half of the dish and add a 1/2 blue of avocado spread on top at the end. But you can add any other toppings you would like!
Containers as prepared prior to toppings: 1 red, 1 yellow, 1/2 blue
For my family, I cook a side of refried pinto beans and dirty rice. Everyone loved it, especially my super picky hubby!! Enjoy and happy Cinco De Mayo!
