Turkey Tacos- Crock Pot




I made these today and I actually really like them.

I made home made salsa for them. I didn't have garlic or Zuccini.
Let me know if you like them. (Oh and I put a little sour cream in. Like 1/4 Cup. I know, not the healthiest but I'm trying.)

Oh and I found WHole Grain Corn taco shells from Target.


Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 Large Onion, finely chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 Green Bell Pepper, diced

1 Red Bell Pepper. diced

1 Zucchini, diced

3 lbs lean ground Turkey or chicken, or beef

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper

1 Large Tomato, finely diced ( I used Rotel tomatoes with green chilis)

1 Cup Salsa, or your favorite brand

1/4 Cup Cilantro

1. Place oil into a large rimmed skillet over medium heat. Saute onions for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in garlic and saute for an additional minute. Next, add the Bell Pepper and Zucchini, stir occasionally. After 5 minutes, transfer mixture to crock pot. Return pan to heat. Add in chicken, salt and pepper. Cook until browned. Stir in Salsa then transfer to crock pot on low heat. Add diced tomato. Let cook on low for 1.5 hours or until ready to serve. Right before serving, stir in fresh chopped cilantro. (Makes 8 servings)

Serve with tortillas, beans, avacado, cheese… whatever you think’s yummy!
