It’s tacos without the hassle of it falling out of a shell! I must say, it tasted amazing and it only takes roughly 15 minutes of prep! It is also such a great meal to freeze for later in the week or to take to work.
For this recipe, I used minced turkey, but you can use any kind of minced meat. I also used jalapenos to give it a little bit of a kick, but if you don’t like the heat, they can be omitted. Or maybe you want it even spicier!? Add some of your favourite hot sauce!
