Title: Land O Lakes Turkey Taco Bake
Ingredients:
– 1 pound ground turkey
– 1 small onion, diced
– 1 packet taco seasoning
– 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
– 1 can diced tomatoes, drained
– 1 cup frozen corn kernels
– 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
– 1/2 cup sour cream
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 8 small corn tortillas
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish by greasing lightly with cooking spray.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground turkey and diced onion together until the turkey is browned and the onion is softened, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
3. Stir in the taco seasoning, black beans, diced tomatoes, and corn kernels. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
4. In a small saucepan, mix together the cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, and sour cream over low heat until melted and well combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. Place 4 corn tortillas on the bottom of the prepared baking dish, overlapping slightly if necessary. Spread half of the turkey mixture over the tortillas, then pour half of the cheese mixture on top.
6. Repeat with another layer of 4 tortillas, the remaining turkey mixture, and the rest of the cheese mixture.
7. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
8. Once baked, sprinkle the fresh cilantro over the top for a burst of fresh flavor.
