Ingredients:

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey (93% lean)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup diced white onion
  • 1 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup blended low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 6 large high protein low carb tortillas

Instructions:

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the diced onion and bell peppers, sautéing until the onions become translucent.
  2. Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until the meat is browned and no longer pink.
  3. Stir in the taco seasoning and water; simmer for 3-5 minutes until the liquid has reduced into a thick glaze that coats the meat.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the shredded mozzarella, blended cottage cheese, and garlic powder until combined.
  5. Steam each tortilla for 15 seconds until pliable and warm to prevent tearing.
  6. Place a tortilla on a flat surface, scoop approximately 1/3 cup of the turkey mixture into the center, and top with 2 tbsp of the cheese blend.
  7. Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly.
  8. Place the burrito seam side down in the preheated skillet. Press down firmly with a spatula for 60-90 seconds until the seam is sealed and golden brown.
  9. Flip and sear the other side for another 60 seconds until crispy.
