Turkey Taco Lettuce Wraps

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Ground turkey
• 2 tbsp Taco seasoning
• 1 Romaine hearts
• 1 cup Cheddar
• 1/2 cup Sour cream
• 1 Avocado
• 1 Lime
• 1/4 Red onion

Steps

1. Brown the turkey in a hot oiled skillet, breaking it into small crumbles — let it sit undisturbed the first 3 minutes so it actually browns instead of steaming.
2. Drain any liquid, stir in the taco seasoning and 1/4 cup water, and simmer 3 minutes until the water cooks off and the meat glistens.
3. Squeeze the lime over the meat and taste for salt; it should be boldly seasoned.
4. Separate the romaine into sturdy, cup-shaped leaves; rinse and dry thoroughly, since wet leaves tear.
5. Fill each leaf with a generous scoop of turkey.
6. Top with cheddar, sour cream, diced avocado, and slivered red onion.
7. Serve immediately — assembled wraps get soggy if they wait.
