This is a very cheap recipe. If you
are on a budget and wanna eat healthy this is for you. You can also
use fresh Veggies but I use frozen because the fresh ones cost so
much.
Frozen Onion $1
Frozen Bell peppers $1
Ground Turkey $1.50 ( I stocked up when
it was BOGO at Kroger)
Buy making your own taco seasoning you control the ingredients you
put in and its also much cheaper ! You don't have to spend $1 every
time you need it to make taco. Just go buy seasoning at the Dollar
Tree and make your own that last forever !
Turkey Taco Meat in a Crockpot ….
½ Pound Extra Lean Ground Turkey
½ Cup Chopped Onion
½ Cup Chopped Green bell peppers
½ Cup Salsa
1 Tablespoons of Homemade Taco
Seasoning
Directions
Put in Crockpot for 4 -5 Hours on Low
or you can also adjust the time to make it on high.
You can also make this in a pan on the
stove top. I just like doing everything in my crockpot ! I put it
there and forget it !
You can make this recipe big enough for any serving size. I only have to feed 2 people so I always make my recipes VERY small because I have a picky eater who will not eat leftovers and I don't want waste.

As
a rule of thumb, use 2 to 3 Tbsp. per 1 lb of meat. If you
are making tacos, remember to add about 1/2 cup of water when you add
the taco meat seasoning to the meat. Just simmer until most of the
liquid has cooked out.
