• Ready In: 45mins
• Ingredients: 13
• Yields: 8 tacos
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 8 small tortillas (flat)
• 1⁄2 lb ground turkey breast
• 1⁄2 bell pepper
• 1⁄2 red onion
• 2 mushrooms
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 (3 ounce) packet taco seasoning
• 1 tomatoes, diced
• 1⁄2 cup lettuce, shredded
• 1⁄2 cup cheese, shredded

• Sauce

• 1⁄2 cup sour cream
• 1⁄4 cup salsa (chunky)
• 1 teaspoon taco seasoning

directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. take each tortilla shell and spray with cooking spray.
3. bend the tortillas around the edges of a large, oven-proof plate to create a taco-like shape.
4. Place in the oven for 10 minutes or until the tortillas have become rigid, then let them rest at room temperature, still around the plate.
5. Saute the ground turkey in a frying pan with 1/2 the packet of taco seasoning and Worcestershire sauce.
6. Dice the pepper, red onion, and mushroom, and mix with the turkey in the pan.
7. Cook until turkey is completely cooked and peppers are not brittle.
8. Set the mixture aside.
9. prepare a baking dish (rectangular) by covering it with tin foil and greasing it (I like to use 1 calorie spray).
10. Remove the shells from the plate and spoon the turkey mixture into the shells (it should only go up about 1/3 of the way of the taco).
11. Sprinkle cheese on top of the turkey mixture.
12. Place each stuffed taco into the baking dish. They should stand up on their own, supported by the others.
13. Bake for 7 minutes or until cheese has partially melted.
14. Take out of oven and add lettuce and tomato on top of the cheese.
15. Top with special sauce (recipe below).

16. Sauce:

17. Mix sour cream and salsa together in a small bowl.
18. Add the taco seasoning to taste.
19. Serve on top of the the tacos.

Had to make a few changes to satisfy hubby's taste buds. Used some fresh cilantro and some fresh salsa to give it a fresh taste and to cut down on the salt in the seasoning packet.
