My friend Jessica just asked for this recipe, so I thought I'd post! I love this for a healthy dinner. I don't mix the turkey together with the other ingredients until I put them on my plate, that way the leftovers stay good (no wilty lettuce) and I can take them for lunch the next day!
1 tsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 lb. ground turkey (or chicken)
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
1 head romaine lettuce, shredded
1 mango, peeled, seeded and diced
1 avocado, peeled pitted and diced
1 tomato diced
1 medium onion, diced
1 cup peeled and shredded carrots
1 15 oz can white beans (or black), rinsed and drained
1/2 c. scallions, diced
grated zest and juice of 1 lime
1/4 c. store-bought salsa
1/4 c. fat free sour cream (i use Fage fat free greek yogurt)
4 pickled jalapenos (optional- i never have these!)
baked tortilla chips (also optional- i never have these either)
In a large non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey, cumin, and chili powder and cook for 5 to 7 minutes (until done). In a bowl, toss together lettuce, mango, avocado, tomato, onion, carrots, beans, scallions, and lime zest and juice. Serve salad with turkey and garnish with salsa, sour cream, jalapenos and tortilla chips.
