Tacos are a super easy staple in any kitchen, and when you don’t have a lot of room “easy” is pretty awesome.

I recently found a recipe that I LOVE that doesn’t use any store bought taco seasoning, so I know what’s it in and its all healthy. Plus, we’ve found we like ground turkey just as much as ground beef and A) its healthier and B) usually cheaper.

If I’ve already eaten my daily amount of carbs for the day (its pretty low), I’ll use a piece of romaine lettuce and make a wrap while everyone else has corn tortillas. Not a lot of extra prep and it tastes amazing.
