Clean, Simple and 21 Day Fix Approved Tacos

What you need:

• 1 lb ground lean turkey
• lettuce
• tomato
• shredded cheese
• onions
• 2 tablespoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
• whole wheat soft tortilla shell
• optional toppings - plain Greek yogurt and avocado

What you need to do:

 

To make the taco seasoning:

1. Blend all spices in a bowl and use to season any taco meat you are cooking. Use approximately 1 tablespoon per pound of meat.
2. Note: This mix has a small amount of “kick” to it.  If you want something without the kick, leave out the cayenne and add an extra 1/2 teaspoon of paprika.

To make the tacos:

1. Pan fry ground turkey, thoroughly.
2. While turkey is cooking, cut up vegetable toppings
3. Once turkey is cooked, add 2/3 c water and taco seasoning (1 tablespoon per pound of meat). Heat until steaming, then place on low for a few minutes.
4. Place taco meat into lettuce bowl and top with toppings (measure meat and veggies with 21 Day Fix)
5. Optional homemade whole wheat chips - bake whole wheat shell in oven at 350. 10 minutes on each side, once crispy and cool cut into triangles (or strips if you want to put on top of taco salad)
