Serving size
Ingredients
- 1 lb. Ground Turkey Breast
- 1 tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- ½ cup Green Bell Pepper, Diced
- ½ cup Yellow Bell Pepper, Diced
- 1/2 cup Mushrooms, Sliced
- ¼ cup Salsa
- Salt and Pepper To Taste
- Homemade Taco Seasoning
- Optional Toppings: diced jalapeno, pico de Gallo, green onion, and cilantro.
Preparation
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced bell peppers and sauté until they start to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 2
Push the peppers to one side of the skillet and add the ground turkey breast to the other side. Cook the turkey, breaking it up with a spatula, until it is browned and cooked through about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Add the salsa to the skillet and stir to combine with the peppers and turkey. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4
Sprinkle the homemade taco seasoning over the mixture and stir well to evenly coat everything.
Step 5
Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 6
Remove the skillet from heat and let the taco filling cool slightly.
Step 7
Divide the taco filling into meal prep containers or bowls. If meal prepping, let the filling cool completely before covering and refrigerating.
Step 8
When ready to serve, reheat the taco filling in the microwave or on the stovetop until warmed through. You can always serve over shredded cabbage and lettuce or cauliflower rice.
