Start out by heating the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Then add the ground turkey and diced onion. Cook until the turkey is no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Make sure to break the turkey apart while it cooks. Once it’s fully cooked, add the turkey and onions into the bottom of your crockpot. I used a 7 quart crockpot I got on Amazon HERE.

Then simply dumb in the rest of your ingredients and mix thoroughly. Put the lid on the Crockpot and cook on high for 2 hours, or low for 4 hours. Top with cheese before serving. This recipe also lasts up to 5 days in the fridge if you will be using it for meal prep.

Recipe Tips:
  • Not following a low carb diet? Serve over rice or quinoa.
  • This recipe can also be made on the stove in a large pan with sides. Simply cook up the turkey and onions first, and then add the rest of the ingredients and let it cook with a lid on it until the corn is fully cooked.

  1. To get the right serving size do you suggest splitting the whole meal up into 8 different containers?
