Description
Happy Cinco de Mayo! This is the meat dish I make the most often when I have guests over. It's just ground turkey sauteed with tomato paste and taco spices. It comes together in less than 15 minutes, and can easily be made while holding a conversation with friends or family. For what I normally pair along side this, check out my Cilantro Lime Brown Rice and Sauteed Fajita Peppers!
