Turkey Taco Bowls

Turkey Taco Bowls

This is one of my go-to week night meals that always leaves me feeling satisfied and nourished.  Plus, it’s flavorful, fun to eat, and nutritious!

Ingredients:
2 Heads of Romaine chopped 
1 lb ground turkey (sub chicken or beef)
1 packet of Taco seasoning 
2 tbsp of avocado oil
1 can of black beans rinsed and drained
1 cup of white rice 
2 bell peppers sliced
1/2 red onion sliced
1 avocado 
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 lime cut into wedges 

*Other topping options: pico salsa, sour cream, greek yogurt, shredded cheese, hot sauce 

Method

• Cook your rice according to package instructions.  Bonus cook in bone broth for extra flavor and nutrients!

• While the rice is cooking spread the sliced peppers and onions on a baking sheet and coat with avocado oil and a sprinkle of the taco seasoning.  Place in the oven on 400 for about 15-20 minutes. 

• Next, cook your ground meat in a skillet with avocado oil. 

• When it’s mostly cooked add a 1/2 cup of water plus your taco seasoning and let it simmer for about 5 minutes. 

• Once everything is cooked you can prepare your bowls. 

• Layer rice and romaine as your base.  Then top with black beans and ground meat.  Then add whatever toppings you like.

• I like to serve with tortilla chips on the side to scoop with.

• Tip if you’re meal prepping or saving leftovers I like to pack everything up separately so it stays fresh!
