Ground Turkey Shell-less Tacos, Take 2!


Ground Turkey Shell-less Tacos,  Take 2!

I finally got around to remaking my Shell-less Tacos described here: Take 1!

I did everything exactly the same, except I made my own salsa! I used the store bought salsa to flavor the ground turkey like before. I just wanted to make sure my salsa tasted good before I mixed it all up in my food. 

Salsa:
Extra virgin olive oil, heated
1 small onion chopped finely, sauteed
1 & 1/2 tsp dried cilantro
Pinches: salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder
2tbsp honey (in many recipes I saw people used sugar, so this was my substitute)
A splash of organic chicken broth

While I cut up 3 large Roma tomatoes I threw the squishy insides in the sauté pan.
I threw the chopped tomatoes in at the end and turned off the heat but left the pan on the warm burner while I mixed it all together and then prepared the other parts of the meal

Fish Tacos

Fish Tacos

Flounder dipped in milk then in a mixture of panko, garlic powder, paprika, and s&p. Baked at 375 for about 10 minutes,  then placed in corn tortillas and topped with fresh cabbage and a lemon garlic aioli. (Aioli recipe: 1/2 cup all natural mayo, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and s&p to taste)

Sarah's Review

Ease: 4/5
Yum: 5/5
Notes: I'm a plain eater so the cabbage and aioli was delicious enough for me, but these can be topped with any veggies you like. A homemade salsa would also be delicious.

Ground Turkey Shell-less Tacos

Ground Turkey Shell-less Tacos

Incl: Ground turkey (cooked with 1/4 cup salsa, pinch of pepper, 1 tsp chilli powder), shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green bell peppers topped with extra salsa (store bought) over a romaine heart leaf. Plain corn on the side. 

Alana's Review

Ease: 5/5
Yum: 5/5
Suggestion: This was delicious, I was concerned because I hadn't had ground turkey before, but adding the salsa while cooking kept it moist and gave the meat a lot of flavor. I loved this meal, my only change would be using homemade salsa.
