Ingredients

    2 tbsp. EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)
    1 cup onion, chopped
    4 cloves garlic, chopped
    1 1/4 Lbs. Lean Ground Turkey
    S & P
    Ground Cumin
    Couple pinches red pepper flakes
    1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
    1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
    1 can S&W Santa Fe Recipe beans
    12 oz. Tostitos Flour Tortilla Chips
    12 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
    1 cup tomato, chopped
    8 oz. 2% cheddar cheese, shredded
    1 cup salsa

Directions

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
