Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
  • 3 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
  • 12 whole romaine heart lettuce leaves
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 whole avocado pitted, peeled, and diced
  • 1 cup salsa no sugar added

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Cutting Board
  • Skillet
  • Peeler

Method
 

  1. Add ground turkey to a skillet. Cook over medium heat for 8 minutes until browned. Add 1/3 cup water, taco seasoning, and salt (if not already an ingredient in the seasoning). Allow to cook for 3 minutes more. Remove from heat.
    Double each lettuce leaf so the top fits into the second and you have 6 doubled leaves altogether. Spoon in the meat mixture. Add cherry tomatoes and avocado pieces. Top each with salsa.
    Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Tip 1: Leftover turkey filling can be stored in the fridge for up to three days. Just reheat when you’re ready to enjoy!
  • Tip 2: While the cooked turkey can be frozen, it’s best to store the lettuce separately to keep it fresh.
  • Tip 3: These wraps pair wonderfully with a side of black beans or Spanish rice for a heartier meal.
  • Tip 4: Try adding grilled chicken or even a vegan protein for a twist on the classic recipe.
  • Tip 5: Adjust the heat level by choosing spicier salsa or adding jalapeños for an extra kick!
