Ingredients
Directions
2 tbsp. EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)1 cup onion, chopped4 cloves garlic, chopped1 1/4 Lbs. Lean Ground TurkeyS & PGround CuminCouple pinches red pepper flakes1 can black beans, drained and rinsed1 can white beans, drained and rinsed1 can S&W Santa Fe Recipe beans12 oz. Tostitos Flour Tortilla Chips12 cups shredded iceberg lettuce1 cup tomato, chopped8 oz. 2% cheddar cheese, shredded1 cup salsa
1. Heat the EVOO over high heat and add the onions and garlic. Cook until softened (3-5 mins)
2. Add the turkey, season to taste with S & P and cumin and cook until browned.
3. Add the beans and heat through.
4. Spread 1 oz. tortilla chips on a plate and scoop 1/2 cup taco meat mixture on top of them.
5. Top with lettuce, cheese, tomato and salsa! YUM!
*You could also top with low-fat sour cream if you like and garnish with cilantro to make it look a little fancy!
**It makes a huge amount of "chili" and I like to separate it out into 5 or 6 packages for freezing...and then I have a great go-to quick dinner! If you do that, you obviously won't need the whole 12 cups of lettuce or 12 oz. of chips, just what you need for your single serving!
***A little back ground info about this recipe...I started to make the 15-min Chili and didn't have all the ingreds, so I did half the Chili recipe and half the Vegetarian Taco Salad recipe and got a great Taco Salad! Hope you like it as much as I did. Enjoy! Mud =D
