Turkey Soft Tacos

390 Calories per 2 Tacos

I feel like I say this a lot, but this is one of my favorite of these "healthified" meals. This is actually the 2nd time that I've made it and it has the 3 perks that I really like in a recipe: Quick, Easy, and Delish (haha). The above pic is of the taco "insides" in the pan- I figured that would give yall a better idea of the meal than if I showed you what it looks like in the tortilla. Also, I actually ate it out of a bowl this time. I figured it would save me a few calories by not eating the tortillas. Either way though, tortilla or bowl, it's very filling and flavorful. 

prep time:10 min

start to finish:20 min

makes:4 servings

1/2	cup Progresso® chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
1	medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
1	small red or green bell pepper, diced (1/2 cup)
1/2	cup frozen whole kernel corn (from 1-lb bag)
1/2	lb ground turkey breast
4	cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2	cup salsa
1/4	cup chopped fresh cilantro
8	flour tortillas (8 to 10 inch), warmed*
	Sour cream, if desired

1.	In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat broth to boiling over high heat. Cook onion, bell pepper and corn in broth 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are crisp-tender. Reduce heat to medium-high.
2.	Stir in turkey and garlic. Cook 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in salsa. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until turkey is no longer pink. Stir in cilantro.
3.	Spoon slightly less than 1/2 cup turkey mixture down center of each tortilla; roll up tortilla. Serve with sour cream.
To warm tortillas, heat them in a hot ungreased skillet or griddle for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Or wrap desired number of tortillas tightly in foil and heat in 250°F oven for 15 minutes. Or place 2 tortillas at a time between dampened microwavable paper towels or sheets of microwavable plastic wrap and microwave on High for 15 to 20 seconds until warm.

Slow Cooker Roast Beef Hash

290 Calories per Serving

This is one of our favorite meals for two reasons: It is SOOOO EASY AND FAST and it's DELISH! Now I say it's fast but it has to cook in the crock pot for 8 or 9 hours, but the prep is so easy. You just throw it all in there. I basically put everything in the crock pot the night before, throw it in the fridge, and then turn the crock pot on before I go to work. Then when I get get home, I just add the potatoes and peas, cook it for 30 more mins and it's done! The hubs highly recommends it too haha.
