Taco salad from a crockpot? Yes. Green chilies are my favorites and I was happy to find this recipe. If you stop after step 2, you have a delicious filling for tacos, too. Made with ground turkey, this is a somewhat lighter meat mixture, which is a happy circumstance! Just 3 steps makes this yummy meal. Recipe from BH&G. Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey or 1 lb chicken or 1 lb lean ground beef, uncooked |
1 (16 ounce) jar mild green chili salsa |
1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans, rinsed and drained |
1 large green sweet pepper, chopped (1 cup) |
1 large onion, finely chopped (1 cup) |
1 (10 ounce) package romaine mixed salad greens |
3 cups crushed tortilla chips |
1/2 cup sliced green onion |
1/2 cup snipped fresh cilantro |
1 tomato, chopped (optional) |
1 cup cheese, grated (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet cook ground turkey until meat is brown. Drain of fat. Transfer turkey to a 3-1/2 to 4-quart crockpot. Stir in salsa, drained beans, sweet pepper, and onion.
2. Cover and cook on LO heat for 6-8 hours or on HI heat for 3-1/2 hours.
3. To Serve: divide Romaine mix among salad plates. Top with turkey mixture. Sprinkle with tortilla chips, green onion, cilantro, and, if desired, tomato and cheese.
