In an effort to eat healthier, I’ve opted to try and substitute ground turkey where I’d normally eat ground beef. Also, I’ve swapped out baby spinach for lettuce to get in some extra vitamins. Those 2 swaps make this healthy dinner/snack a family favorite at my house each week. You’ll need:
-baked tostito scoops
-1 package lean ground turkey
-shredded spinach
-salsa
-diced tomatoes
To make the turkey taco mixture you’ll need to combine the following spices in a small bowl:
-2 tbsp dried onion
-1 tsp chili powder
-1 tsp paprika
-1/4 tsp cumin
-1/2 tsp dried oregano
-1/2 tsp salt
-1/4 tsp garlic powder
-1/8 tsp black pepper
Preheat a large non-stick skillet on medium high heat. Add ground turkey and spices mixture. Cook until well combined and no longer pink. Drain off any excess fat. Place 14 scoops on a plate. Use a tbsp of the turkey mixture to fill each scoop. Top with 1 tsp of your favorite salsa, shredded spinach, and diced tomatoes. Enjoy!!
These were tasty and fun! My kids loved them too. I think they’d make great little appetizers for a group or party as well. Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! I’m glad you and your family enjoyed them!!! 🙂
