Super Simple Turkey Tacois

[donotprint]Turkey tacos are one of my super simple stand-by recipes. Fire roasted canned tomatoes, chopped onion and cumin couldn’t be an easier seasoning for ground turkey or beef. Add raisins for a sweet contrast to the spice – like in my recipe for Raisin Serrano Quesadillas – and raisins make a jazzier taco too. Offer shredded cheddar and lettuce to finish the tacos. Now that’s simple – just 6 main ingredients and 15 minutes till dinner!

Super Simple Turkey Tacos

Makes 4 servings  Prep and Cook Time: 15 minutes

1            pound ground turkey
1/2        cup chopped onion
2            teaspoons ground cumin
1            can (15 oz.) fire-roasted diced tomatoes – see note*
1/2        cup natural raisins
8            7-inch corn or flour tortillas, or taco shells
Shredded lettuce
Shredded Cheddar or Jack cheese, or Queso Fresco

1.      In a 10-12-inch skillet brown meat and onion. Add cumin and stir 1 minute.
2.      Add tomatoes and raisins; cook until heated through. Season to taste with salt.
3.      Warm tortillas and fill with meat. Serve with lettuce and cheese.

Kitchen Notes:
*The flavor and heat of canned fire-roasted tomatoes varies. Try different brands to find your favorite. A dash of cayenne or red pepper flakes can always be added to taste.

    I love the idea of “super simple” and “tacos” in the same recipe! Not that tacos are complicated per se, but sometimes there seems like a lot of parts and pieces to get together. Yours sound wonderfully nuanced, yet easy to put together. Bueno!

      Yes, it’s so simple it surprised me too for the amount of flavor. Of course, you could dice avocado, cilantro, add sour cream — which would take just a few more minutes.

        I hear you, but I also like the idea of your flavorful base not getting, I don’t know, polluted!

    Looks yummy! I’ll make it Paleo –skip the tortilla and cheese, serve over lettuce.
