Instructions

Notes
Nutrition information is for one taco with one serving of the taco meat. It does not include cheese or other toppings.
Optional : I like to blend up the canned diced green chilies in a blender before adding to the ground turkey so that there are no chunks in the taco meat. This is optional and great for pickier eaters.
