Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Warm the tortillas
- Remove 12 tortillas from the package; save the rest for another use.
While the tortillas warm, prepare the taco filling.
2
Prep and cook the taco filling
- If using the poblano, remove the stem, ribs, and seeds; chop the poblano into ¼-inch pieces. Wash your hands after handling.
- Cut a small corner from the ground turkey packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel.
- Rinse the black beans.
Add the turkey and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until lightly browned but not yet cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the taco seasoning, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the turkey is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the black beans and cook until warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
While the taco filling cooks, prepare the salsa and garnishes.
