SPICY TURKEY TACOS



Spicy Turkey Tacos image

Tastier, cheaper, and healthier than the traditional beef with store bought seasoning. If you're not sure about the turkey, go with ground turkey thighs---it's darker, and most people will never know the difference.

SMOKED TURKEY TACOS



Smoked turkey tacos image

I know most people would do hot turkey sammies , soup or pot pie's etc. But oh no me :-) This is what I came up with for some of the leftover turkey. This was a huge success I think mainly due to the amazingly delicious saucy relish! And that smoked turkey put it over the moon.
