Best Turkey Taco Meat Recipes
GROUND TURKEY TACO MEAT
This recipe has fewer calories because of the ground turkey and amazing flavor! It is a little spicy, but our family enjoys it this way. Because it has so much flavor, you cannot even tell it's not ground beef. It tastes great as a topping on baked potatoes as well as tacos. Enjoy!

GROUND TURKEY TACO MEAT
I make this at least 4 times a month. We get our ground turkey in bulk at Costco in the 4 pack. This recipe is for one pack, but we usually double it since I use it for taco salads, while my husband throws it in a tortilla for a snack. IF YOU DON'T LIKE SPICY....change out the Rotel's variety to the the mild or the Mexican (tomatoes, lime, and cilantro) style. This is a basic recipe, so play with the spices and the Rotels for the taste you like. Ours never tastes the same, since some times we want the meat more spicy, and not so much others.
