Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 15 ounce can black beans, drained & rinsed
- 14.5 ounce can Rotel tomatoes undrained
- 8 ounce can tomato sauce
- 4 Tablespoons (or one packet) taco seasoning mix
- 14 ounce package coleslaw mix
- 3/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, pepper jack, Mexican) or any combination
Instructions
- In a large, deep skillet brown ground turkey until cooked through and drain
- Add Rotel, tomato sauce, beans, seasoning mix, and stir well. Add coleslaw mix and fold/stir into sauce ingredients.
- Cover and cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes or until cabbage is desired texture. You may need to add a couple tablespoons of water as it's cooking to help steam the cabbage.
- Remove lid, top with cheese, and replace lid. Cook for about 3 more minutes until cheese is melted.
Notes
Coleslaw mix makes this an especially easy weeknight recipe.
I like to buy taco seasoning in bulk and then measure it out as needed for various recipes since we tend to like a bit more flavor and it is more economical to buy it this way if you use a lot of it (which we do!).
