Who’s hungry?! If you read my first post, you know my favorite food is tacos. I’m pretty sure I could eat tacos every night of the week – hard shell, soft shell, taco salad – you name it! But let’s face it, making a taco spread with all the fixings takes a lot of cutting prep and dirties a lot of dishes. This fifteen minute southwestern taco bowl cuts your prep, cooking and cleaning time nearly in half. And, it’s high in protein and low carb. Make a large batch after work and enjoy later in the week for lunch, dinner and even breakfast. Just add an egg and you’ve got a deconstructed breakfast burrito!
15 Minute Southwestern Taco Bowl
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1 bag of cauliflower rice, found in the produce department at most grocery stores

Instructions:
In large skillet, brown ground turkey for x minutes. Add ¼ cup water and taco seasoning, Simmer until combined and remove to large mixing bowl.
