This is the perfect busy weeknight meal. It’s takes one of people’s favorite foods…tacos…and turns it into an easy one pan meal! This Turkey Taco Skillet is naturally low in carbs, packed with protein, and full of flavor! Get ready for your family’s new favorite meal!

Start out by spraying a large pan with non-stick cooking spray, and adding in the ground turkey. Cook the turkey over medium heat, breaking again any big chunks that form. Once the turkey is fully cooked and no longer pink, add in the packet of taco seasoning and mix thoroughly.

This next part’s my favorite…just dump in the garlic, diced tomatoes, salsa, corn and black beans. Mix everything together and let cook on medium/low heat for about 10 minutes.

Once the corn and black beans are warm throughout, the dish is ready! Sprinkle Mexican cheese on top and either serve immediately, or store in the fridge up to 5 days.

Serving Suggestions:

• Serve over rice or quinoa. You can even scoop this into taco shells!
• To keep this low carb, serve over cauliflower rice
