Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tsp olive oil
1 1/2 - 2 lbs lean ground turkey
2 16 oz cans refried beans
1 cup taco sauce* (See Note 1)
2 1/2 tbsp low sodium taco seasoning
12 corn tortillas, cut into fourths
2-3 cups shredded cheese (cheddar cheese, Mexican blend, your fave!)
Fritos, Doritos, corn chips for crunch!
chopped tomatoes
black olives
green onions
sour cream or Greek yogurt
diced avocado
red onion
chopped lettuce
salsa, extra taco sauce
red bell pepper
jalapeños
bell peppers
fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey and brown turkey, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon or potato masher Pro Tip: Using a potato masher when the meat is about halfway cooked works great at getting the meat broken up nice and fine ????
  • When meat is browned and almost cooked through, add the taco seasoning and taco sauce. Stir and simmer 2-3 minutes more to allow flavors to combine.
  • While meat is cooking, add beans to a pan over medium heat with about 1/4 can of water to thin them out and make them spreadable. Stir until smooth and heated through.
  • Preheat oven to 375 and spray a 9 x 12 baking pan (or similar) with cooking spray.
  • Assemble the casserole: Layer 1/2 the tortillas, beans, taco meat and cheese into even layers. Repeat ONCE so there are two layers of every item. The last layer should be cheese.
  • Bake, uncovered for 30-40 minutes until casserole starts to bubble and cheese is nicely melted on top.
  • Remove from oven and allow 5-10 minutes for the casserole to cool. Top with toppings and enjoy!

SPICY TURKEY TACOS



Spicy Turkey Tacos image

Tastier, cheaper, and healthier than the traditional beef with store bought seasoning. If you're not sure about the turkey, go with ground turkey thighs---it's darker, and most people will never know the difference.
