I love this recipe.  It's easy and so tasty, and the leftovers keep great!  Perfect for planning out a week of lunches :)

  • 1 medium Onion, chopped
  • 1 Jalapeno, chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, chopped
  • 1lb Ground Turkey
  • 1.5tsp Chili Powder
  • 1tsp Mexican Oregano Leaves
  • Sea Salt - to taste
  • 8oz can no salt added Tomato Sauce
  • 3T no salt added Tomato Paste

Directions
  • Heat oil in skillet and add onion and jalapeno, cook 4-5 minutes
  • Add garlic and cook 1 additional minute
  • Remove and set aside in bowl
  • Brown turkey in same skillet
  • Season turkey with chili powder, oregano, and salt
  • Add tomato sauce and paste, mixing well
  • Cook 8 minutes or until most liquid evaporates
This is so great because you can serve it a number of ways!  Tonight I had mine on a bed of lettuce topped with 1/2 blue of cheese, salsa, and greek yogurt!  

You could also serve over brown rice, in a lettuce cup, or a whole wheat tortilla!

Try it out and let me know what you think!
