Ingredients

• Lean Ground Turkey – I used 2.5 pounds of 93% lean ground turkey but use whatever kind you would like! You can also substitute the ground turkey for ground chicken, pork, or beef.
• Yellow Onion – 1/2 large yellow onion, diced.
• Garlic – 2 teaspoons of minced garlic.
• Jalapenos – 2 jalapenos, chopped (most of the seeds & membranes removed).
• Taco Seasoning – 4 ounces of your favorite taco seasoning, or to taste. Find my homemade taco seasoning recipe here.
• Cauliflower Rice – 12 ounces of cauliflower rice, cooked. I just used a frozen bag that you just pop in the microwave to make it easy!
• Tomatoes – One 14.5 ounce can of Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies.
• Chicken Broth – 1 cup of low sodium chicken broth.
• Cheddar Cheese – I used 1 cup of mild shredded cheddar cheese, but feel free to use your favorite kind.

How To Make It

1. In a large skillet, cook the ground turkey over medium-high heat until almost fully cooked through, breaking up with a wooden spoon. Drain any excess liquid.
2. Add the onion, jalapeños, and minced garlic. Cook until fragrant and ground turkey is fully cooked, about 3 more minutes.
3. Add in the taco seasoning, Rotel tomatoes, chicken broth, and cauliflower rice to the skillet. Stir well and simmer on medium-low heat for 5 minutes (or until extra liquid is absorbed).
4. Top the skillet with the shredded cheddar cheese. Cover and simmer until the cheese is fully melted. Garnish with any desired toppings. Serve & enjoy!!
