This is a really good recipe, but since I didn't have some ingredients I made a few changes: sauted fresh garlic, anions and green pepper then added ground turkey beast, when no longer pink, I added all the spices and 1 small can of tomato sauce + 1 small can of corn. Fresh cilantro is a must have. I didn't have pita bread either, so I made it for nachos... it was delicious!

Great taste! Definitely a healthier version of the taco without taking anything away from the flavor. Thanks!

This recipe was awesome-the family loved it. We are huge fans of spicy food so we added a banana pepper and it gave this recipe a little extra *pop* that we crave after a long day. Good recipe.

This is great, especially if you have small kids. Easy to handle & good for you. I used hot salsa, because my family likes hot, actually my husband calls this Turkey Surprise, since he didn't realize it was going to be that spicy. I suggest a little lettuce for crunch. Will make again!
