Turkey Tacos and Refried Beans

Dinner Tonight: Turkey Tacos and Refried Beans




To start my morning off I Scrambled a couple of Eggs, toasted a couple of slices of Aunt Millie's Light Whole Grain Bread, and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Wow, we have had so much rain ,

and more coming! Today we had a high of 60 and dry in the morning but rain moving in for the evening. Anyway after Breakfast I went grocery shopping at Meijer. It's getting tougher and tougher to keep your grocery bill down, stuff just keeps going up! Really have to do some smart shopping and coupons. On the way back in I stopped and picked up Breakfast for Mom at McDonald's. Dad seems to be adjusting to his new home at the assisted living center. Still wish he was home with us. But as they say "Life goes on", and we will but its tough. For Dinner tonight, It's a Taco Night! I prepared Turkey Tacos and  a side of Refried Beans.
 



We had Tacos last week and they were so good, we're having them again. When making Turkey
Tacos I love using Jennie -O 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. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop – Pop Corn and a Diet Peach Snapple.
