Ingredients 

Directions

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil 

  • ½ of a white onion, chopped

  • 1 lb. ground turkey

  • 4 Tbsp Greek yogurt, divided  

  • 1 Avocado, divided 

  1. In a large, oven-safe pot over medium heat add oil and diced onion. Allow to cook for 5 minutes until onions become a bit translucent. Stir occasionally so onions don’t stick to the bottom of the pot.

  5. Add chopped zucchini and bell pepper, and stir allowing them to heat through. 

  6. Add 1 can or jar of red enchilada sauce and stir. 

  7. Allow pot to simmer on the stove for 30 minutes. 

  8. While simmering place 2-3 soft tortillas on top of eachother and slice them into 1” strips. 

  9. Add a ½ cup of shredded mexican cheese and tortilla strips to the pot. Stir until fully mixed and heated throughout. 

  10. Sprinkle the remainder of the shredded cheese evenly over the top and place the pot in the oven uncovered to broil for 5 minutes. 

  11. Scoop evenly into 4 meal prep containers. Place a 1 Tbsp dollop of greek yogurt on each as well as a quarter of the diced avocado. 

  12. Refrigerate for up to 4-5 days. When ready to eat, microwave for 1 to 1 ½ minutes.
