½ package taco seasoning or use this combo to make your own (1½ teaspoon chili powder, ¾ teaspoon cumin, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon dried oregano, salt to taste)
2 bell peppers (red, orange or green), sliced
1 head iceburg lettuce, washed, dried and separated into leaves
couple shakes of the following spices: cumin, garlic powder, dried oregano, soy sauce, salt, pepper
Instructions
Heat drizzle of olive oil (~1 teaspoon) in large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onions for about 4-5 minutes. Add ground turkey and break up with a wooden spoon. Brown meat in the skillet (drain liquid if there is excess). Add taco seasoning (or spices) and ⅓ cup water. Bring to a boil, then turn heat down and simmer for additional 5 minutes. If the turkey starts to dry out, you can add a little more water.
While turkey is simmering, heat a second small skillet with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Add bell peppers, a splash of soy sauce, couple shakes of cumin, dried oregano and garlic powder, pinch of salt and pepper. Saute on medium-high heat until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
To assemble place ~1/3 cup ground turkey into lettuce wrap. Top with ¼ cup bell pepper, 1-2 Tablespoons of shredded cheddar, cilantro and salsa. Eat like a taco!
Notes
The reason behind only using half of the taco seasoning pack is due to the high sodium content. You can easily achieve the same flavor using the separate spices, plus adding your own salt to the dish. Sometimes I add extra chili and garlic powder after using just half the package. Taste the meat once it's fully cooked to see if it has enough seasoning and add more to your liking.
