Mexican Turkey Lettuce Wraps

This is a recipe that’s great to serve if anyone in your party is gluten-free. By eliminating the tortilla, you not only make this a more versatile dish, but you also cut back on unnecessary calories. Make sure to get your favorite toppings to pile inside!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground turkey
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 small onion, finely diced
  • 1 (4-ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 8 large iceberg lettuce leaves
  • 1/4 cup light sour cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Mexican-blend cheese
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the turkey and brown for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic powder, cumin, salt, chili powder, paprika, and oregano. Stir to combine and continue browning the meat. Add the onion, 3/4 cup water, and the tomato sauce and cover. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes.
