“Well done Cara! Your taco salad with turkey meat sounds appetizing and well-balanced. The lean protein from the turkey will help keep you feeling full and satisfied. The salad part of your meal is a great source of fiber which also contributes to the feeling of fullness. Incorporating lean proteins and fiber-rich foods in your meals is a key strategy in your weight loss journey.”
Instructions
1.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
2.
While the turkey is cooking, prepare the salad base by combining the chopped romaine lettuce, spinach, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and corn in a large bowl.
3.
Once the turkey is cooked, let it cool slightly before adding it to the salad mixture.
4.
Top the salad with shredded cheese and drizzle with low-fat dressing.
5.
Toss gently to combine all ingredients and serve immediately.
