Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb extra lean ground turkey
1/2 c chopped green pepper (optional)
1 large onion, chopped
1 tsp. brown sugar
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. chili powder
1/8 tsp. salt
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes, divided
4 oz reduced fat or fat free cream cheese
1/4 cup light or fat free sour cream
1 tsp. spicy garlic seasoning (I used garlic powder and added a bit of cayenne to taste)
3/4 cup prepared salsa
8 tortillas, warmed
1/2 cup shredded 2 % mexican four cheese blend (or whichever kind you prefer)

Steps:

  • Brown turkey along with pepper and onion in a skillet. Once browned, add brown sugar, garlic powder, salt and chili powder. Stir in 1 cup crushed tomatoes and simmer uncovered over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, combine sour cream, spicy garlic seasoning, and cream cheese with mixer. Set aside. Mix 3/4 of this mixture into the meat mixture in the last 2 minutes of simmering. Stir well to combine. Prepare 9x13 pan with baking spray. Combine salsa and remaining tomatoes and spread 1 cup of this into the bottom of the pan. Spread a small amount of the cream cheese mixture onto a tortilla, fill with about 1/3 c turkey mixture, and roll. Place seam side down into dish. Finish this process with the rest of the meat mixture. Spread remaining tomato/salsa mixture over the top and sprinkle with cheese. Cook uncovered for 25 minutes at 350 degrees F. Serve topped with sour cream and taco sauce if desired.
