Ground Turkey Taco Nachos image

Delicious and filling turkey taco nachos that everyone will love. You can top them with your favorite taco toppings such as lettuce, pico de gallo, light sour cream, or guacamole. I use pre-chopped and pre-shredded vegetables and pico de gallo from the grocery store to save preparation time on a weeknight. I like to include chopped or shredded vegetables I have on hand to boost the nutrition.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 ¼ pounds 99%-lean ground turkey breast
1 package taco seasoning
2 cups pico de gallo, divided
⅓ (16 ounce) package broccoli slaw
2 tablespoons chopped red bell pepper
2 tablespoons chopped yellow bell pepper
2 tablespoons chopped green bell pepper
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
1 (8 ounce) can no-salt-added tomato sauce
48 corn tortilla chips, or as needed
1 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey and cook until beginning to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with taco seasoning. Cook and stir until turkey is no longer pink, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add 1 cup pico de gallo, broccoli slaw, and chopped bell peppers. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in diced tomatoes and tomato sauce; cook until simmering and heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • Divide tortilla chips evenly and layer onto 4 microwave-safe plates. Spoon turkey mixture on top, sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, and spray with cooking spray.
  • Microwave each plate on high until cheese has melted, about 1 minute. Serve with remaining pico de gallo.
