Healthy Tacos

I have been trying to eat healthy and sneak veggies in so my kids will too. I got one of those chopper things that cuts your food in to little squares. It is perfect a for a dish like this and I was excited to use it. I love kitchen gadgets! My kids ate it with out even a second thought and they could still see the veggies! 

Healthy Taco's: 

1lb ground turkey 

About 1/4 cup of diced onion

1 diced carrot 

About 1/4 cup dice zucchini

1tbs of my chili seasoning 

1tsp garlic salt

1/2 tsp onion powder

1tsp cumin 

Salt to taste 

5 steps to a healthy yet flavorful meal: 

1. Brown turkey

2. Add onion and carrot and sauté till the onion starts to turn transparent

3. Add seasoning and zucchini 

4. Cook for 3 more minutes 

5. Serve anyway you like to eat taco meat. Salad, soft or crunchy, or nachos and top how you like. 

NOTE: No need to add any liquid or drain the meat, the vegetables will make enough and turkey is so lean the little fat it makes is good to leave. 

Enjoy!
