Cauliflower Rice Turkey Taco Skillet
This Cauliflower Rice Turkey Taco Skillet is a quick, healthy dinner packed with flavor!
Equipment
- Large Skillet
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- Knife and cutting board
- Measuring spoons and cups
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon canola oil or oil of choice
- 1 onion diced
- 2 bell peppers diced (any color, I used red)
- 5 garlic cloves minced
- 1 pound ground turkey or ground beef if preferred
- 1 heaping cup fresh salsa
- 4 cups cauliflower rice (from one head of cauliflower, or use pre-made)
- 3 tablespoons taco seasoning or use your favorite
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until soft and fragrant.
- Stir in the minced garlic and ground turkey. Cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
- Sprinkle in the taco seasoning and other spices. Stir well to coat the turkey and vegetables.
- Mix in the fresh salsa and cauliflower rice. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more red pepper flakes or hot sauce if you prefer it spicier.
- Remove from heat and serve warm, topped with garnishes like chopped cilantro, avocado, or cheese.
Notes
- Don’t overcook the cauliflower rice; it should be tender but not mushy.
- Use fresh salsa for the best flavor.
- Taste the seasoning as you go, especially with salt.
