You're silly not to give this recipe a try! I was looking for a recipe to use my ground chicken with and stumbled upon this. I wish I could give more than 5 stars that is how great it is!! I did double the recipe, but only used 1 large jalapeno because I have teenagers & small children (I didn't want it too hot for the little ones). I also added 1/2 cup of baby bella mushrooms, diced real small) because I needed to use them up. It was gone! Not one bit left for my husbands lunch the next day.

Delish! However, I did add a bit of Splenda to give it a little more sweetness. Otherwise, very good and what an awesome way to sneak those sweet potatoes in!

I make a variation on this recipe and it is DE-LISH. I add half a tbsp oil to the onions and cook those up a bit before adding the turkey, then I put in the second half tbsp and brown the turkey. I left off the jalapeno and cilantro because I'm not a fan. Instead of the tomatillo salsa I just added diced tomatoes - about a cup worth. I followed the recipe pretty close for the other spices - probably added a little more chili powder. Adding sour cream to the finished product cools it a little bit. Very yummy!

These were great! Next time I think I will buy some bibb or butter lettuce and use the filling to make lettuce wraps. Very tasty!

Flavour was great! I did not add the jalapeño peppers, used green peppers instead and added lettuces and sour cream to it to make it Fajitas instead of Tacos. Really enjoyed it, and will make again.

I was so excited to try these and they were just ok. Not sure if I didn't cook them right or what but it was lacking flavor (despite all of the ingredients). I used sweet potatoes because it is what I had on hand and there was just something missing from them. Won't be making agin.

I really loved these tacos! I made a few modifications: I used a 1 lb. of ground turkey, increased the spices, used 3/4 cups of the salsa verde and served it on corn tortillas that I toasted over an open flame. YUM! I also did a version were I skipped the tortillas altogether and served this with regular salsa in addition to the tomatillo salsa over shredded lettuce as a taco salad. That was also excellent!

This was excellent! I changed a few things. I used leftover Turkey from Christmas. Shred the turkey, one jalapeno, taco seasoning packet in place of the seasonings. For the salsa i added homemade salsa. No tomatillo salsa. added lettuce, cheese and sourcream. :) YUMM

Yams are so healthy and cheap, if only there were ways to use them besides topping with marshmallows for Thanksgiving. Enter this recipe! It's so good... one of my husband's favorites. It's pretty forgiving, so don't worry too much about getting the right amount of everything. For one thing, I only use one unseeded jalapeno (too lazy to put on gloves to seed/chop them). I also don't have Cajun seasoning, so I threw in some paprika, oregano, pepper, and lemon juice instead. Also, I add a LOT more cumin. Top the mixture with some tomato chunks, homemade salsa, cheese, and maybe some plain yogurt, and YAY awesome tacos.
