Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 0.5 cup water
- 12 mini corn tortillas
- 0.5 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup, quartered cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup, shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup, chopped cilantro
- 1 cut into wedges lime

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large skillet, spray a small amount of olive oil spray and heat over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet. Cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, about 6-7 minutes.
Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Bring to a simmer and let cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the turkey is fully cooked and the mixture is thickened.
Meanwhile, place mini corn tortillas on a baking sheet and lightly spray both sides with olive oil spray.
Bake the tortillas in the oven for 5-7 minutes until they are crispy.
To assemble the tacos, place a spoonful of the turkey mixture onto each tortilla.
Top each with a small amount of non-fat Greek yogurt, shredded lettuce, quartered cherry tomatoes, and reduced-fat cheddar cheese.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low fat mini tacos!
