How to cook Turkey Tacos

1. Add a tablespoon of olive oil, the onion, bell pepper, and garlic to a skillet and cook for a 3 minutes.
2. Add the ground turkey to the skillet. Break it up and brown it.
3. When the meat is almost done browning, add the taco seasoning, cumin, and a little water. Mix.
4. Add the tajin and salsa. Cook 3-5 minutes.
5. In a separate skillet, add a teaspoon of olive oil and brown your tortilla shells.

NOTES:

I usually start building my taco by adding sour cream on the bottom of the shell, adding some turkey next, then adding my favorite toppings!
