Make your taco meat ground turkey and add grated carrot and tomato for extra flavor and nutrition.
Buy grated part-skim mozzarella in bulk – it is the most versatile cheese and you can use in almost any recipe and is several grams lower in fat than cheddar. Great way to use up left over cherry tomatoes, lettuce, and extra salsa that lingers at the bottom of the jar.

Hello!
I’m thinking of doing this recipe, but I don’t have available turkey meat in my fridge currently so, would ground (all most lean) beef do?
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Edeline
Hi Edeline!
Yes, you can use lean ground beef, (ground sirloin is best) though is much higher in saturated fat compared to turkey. Beef is ok in moderation, I have my bistro style beef burger once in a while 🙂
I just got done eating this recipe and it was very tasty! I was unsure about the turkey because Im not really a turkey fan but it turned out great. Thanks!
I’m new to this site. Why don’t you have nutritional information included with the recipes?
Hi Johnny,
We’ll be offering the nutritional info soon, please check back!
Does using beef stock in the cooking of the turkey signicantly effect the fat content?
You can use beef stock! Just opt for the reduced-sodium, light beef stock. Most brands will only a minimal amount of fat, say 1 gram to the entire recipe.
