Healthy Turkey Tacos
We’re trying to be more healthy at our house these days, trying being the operative term. Healthy Turkey Tacos was a great healthy meal!
With COVID going on, Matt is working from home, and with having both boys home it gets kind of hectic. I just need healthy recipes that are quick and easy, but also delicious. Matt loves tacos and so do I. Turkey tacos were very good, you can’t even tell it’s turkey and not ground beef. I was happy to find a healthy alternative to one of our favorite meals!

TACO RECIPES
Those turkey tacos look delicious! Especially because I have a real hard time with turkey beef not coming out gritty.
Those look so delicious, and healthy too! Thanks for sharing
I’ve had a hard time finding ground turkey recipes that don’t end up dry and tasteless–as “meatballs” and
hamburgers” often do. this sounds likeit avoid the dryness problem. going to try it tonight.
