Let’s Talk Turkey Tacos (or nachos!)

While perusing some of my favorite blogs, I came across a post for a Lime, Cilantro, Yogurt Sauce at The Slow Roasted Italian.  I was immediately on the path to fajita or taco heaven.  Sometimes the best recipes start with what you have in the fridge.  I had lime, cilantro, sugar and salt, and I always have plain Greek Yogurt so I went on the hunt to find a great turkey taco recipe.  We’re still doing the gluten free thing for a few more months (the plan is a six month experiment) so I wanted something made from corn with some delicious crunch and that perfect salty fix.  I picked up our favorite Food Should Taste Good Multigrain Chips and was on my way.

I mixed up the easy cilantro lime sauce and gave it a taste or two, just to make sure.

Yup it’s good stuff.

I made a half recipe since it’s just the two of us.  It was gone by the next day.  Next time I’ll make the whole thing!

For the turkey taco filling chop one jalapeno, cilantro, garlic and half a large red onion.  Add chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper and saute the vegetables and spices together in vegetable oil on medium-low heat until tender.  Add canned tomatoes and the stir in the ground turkey and chicken broth.   I’ve always used those package spice mixes but I’m here to tell you this smells heavenly!

Gather up some toppings or scoopable vegetables and grate some cheese.  Dinner’s done.  Don’t forget the cilantro, lime yogurt sauce!  Crazy yummy!
