Lo-Carb Turkey Tacos

I found this recipe on Pinterest, and you can find the original recipe HERE. You can also find the nutritional information on the site. It says they are 134 calories for two tacos! Can't go wrong there!


Instead of using tortillas for these tacos, they used lettuce, for a lettuce wrap. It was so good and light! Also, this was the best blend of spices for taco seasoning that I've ever made. I would use this blend over any pre-made taco seasoning any day of the week. Really really good!

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 sweet onion, minced
  • 3 Tbs bell pepper, minced (I used red, but green would be great also)
  • 4 oz can tomato sauce
  • can of water
Cook ground turkey in a skillet until browned and cooked through. Add dry seasonings and mix well. Add onions and pepper, until slightly sauteed. Add tomato sauce and can of water. Stir well and let simmer for several minutes. 

Serve in large lettuce leaves. Top with sour cream, shredded cheese and green onions.
