I am thinking of re-vamping K is for Kitchen. I am still going to have recipes on here, but I am also thinking of taking it a different direction. Details to come....
I am so sorry for the neglect all you chefs out there! I haven't been cooking much myself due to a very busy sports schedule.
So I'll leave you with a very quick, very easy recipe that actually doesn't involve much cooking at all! Just a little chopping and a few cans to open. These are the kinds of things we are eating for dinner these days. No time for gourmet! ;)
Our Favorite Taco Salad
1 bag iceberg lettuce
1 tomato, chopped
Red onion, chopped
Cilantro
1/2 can corn
1/2 can black beans
1 avocado, diced
shredded cheese
1 packet taco seasoning
1 package ground turkey
Newman's Own Southwest Dressing
Lime (optional)
Thin tortilla chips
Prepare ground turkey according to directions on the taco seasoning packet. Layer the other ingredients in order, starting with lettuce on bottom. Pour hot, cooked turkey on top. Squeeze 1/2 lime on top of meat and toss with lightly with salad dressing. Arrange chips on plate in an "O" shape and serve salad in center. Enjoy!
Here's what the dressing looks like. It is fairly low in calorie and DO NOT substitute! It makes the salad. :) Tastes creamy so you do not need extras like sour cream. Also this recipe makes a lot more than one meal! I usually end up up scooping half of it into a bowl to toss with the dressing so I can store the rest in the fridge for quickie lunches for myself. Perfect!
This recipe (and the weather) also goes perfect with this.
