Turkey Tacos and Refried Beans

Today’s Menu: Turkey Tacos and Refried Beans




To start my morning off I toasted a Healthy Life Whole Grain English Muffin and topped it with Smucker's Sugarless Blackberry Jam. I also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Mostly sunny
and 80 degrees outside! Beautiful day outside! After Breakfast I headed to Meijer for a few sale items and went to their Garden Center also. On the way back I stopped at McDonald’s to pick up Breakfast for Mom.  Well we got Dad into his new home. It is so much nicer, it's not even fair to compare the two! We are so happy that they had a place open for him. So for Dinner tonight, It’s a Taco Night! I prepared Turkey Tacos and a side of Refried Beans.


We all love Turkey Tacos, great Comfort food for us! When making Turkey Tacos I use Jennie -O
Extra Lean Ground Turkey Breast! Love all the Jennie -O Turkey Products, always fresh and low calorie and low carb. I started by frying the Ground Turkey till it was no longer pink in Extra Light Olive Oil and seasoning it with Sea Salt, Ground Roasted Cumin, Cilantro Flakes. As the Turkey was finishing cooking I added, 1 can OF Bush’s Chili Beans – Black Beans, 1 package of Old El Paso Low Sodium Taco Seasoning and 2/3 cup Water, continued to cook and stir for an additional 6 minutes. Jennie -O and Old El Paso together make one fine Taco!



For toppings I used; Sargento Reduced Fat 4 Cheese Mexican, Sliced Black Olives, Sliced Green
Olives, Ortega Smoky Chipotle Taco Sauce, Sliced Jalapenos, and Shredded Lettuce. For my Taco Shells I used the Old El Paso Stand N’ Stuff Taco Shells (Whole Grain Corn). Add the Jennie – O Turkey and you got you some mouth watering and delicious Tacos! Love these Taco Nights. I also heated up a can of Old El Paso Fat Free Refried Beans for a side for Mom and Dad. Enough Leftovers to get a couple of Lunches out of it. We made a big plate of it for Dad and took it it to the Center for him for his Dinner. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Coke Zero to drink.
