Turkey Taco Lettuce
Turkey Taco Lettuce Wraps are the perfect option for a light and flavorful meal that won't derail your healthy eating goals.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- For the filling:
- 1 red onion, diced, 90 g.
- 300 g. ground turkey breast, 98% fat free
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- For the tacos:
- 1 cup cottage cheese, 240 g.
- Romaine lettuce leaves, 2 large lettuce, 300 g.
- ½ cup corn kernels, 90 g.
- 1 red bell pepper, diced, 90 g.
- 2 tomatoes, diced, 125 g.
Instructions
- Begin by seasoning the ground turkey breast with salt, pepper, garlic, and taco seasoning. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and cook until translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the marinated ground turkey to the skillet with the onion and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until fully cooked and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes. Ensure the turkey is thoroughly cooked before removing from heat.
- Meanwhile, prepare the taco ingredients. Wash and dry the romaine lettuce leaves and place them on a large serving platter. Place the cottage cheese, corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, and diced tomatoes in individual bowls so each person can customize their own tacos.
- Once the turkey filling is ready, remove the skillet from the heat and assemble the tacos. Take a romaine lettuce leaf and place a portion of the turkey filling in the center (if the taco filling is already cold).
- Then, add a tablespoon of cottage cheese and a handful of the other prepared ingredients.
- Repeat this process with the remaining romaine lettuce leaves and turkey filling until all the tacos are assembled.
- Serve the Turkey Taco Lettuce Wraps immediately and enjoy this delicious and healthy alternative to traditional tacos. Bon appétit!
