      Mini Turkey Tacos

      Ingredients:

      • 1 box mini pie crust – will come with 14 pies

      • 2 TBS olive oil

      • 1 lb lean ground turkey

      • ½ small zucchini

      • 1 large carrot

      • 1 small onion

      • 2 TBS taco seasoning

      • 2 TBS minced garlic

      • ¼ cup chicken broth

      • Shredded cheese of choice

      Directions:

      1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
      2. If you have a veggie chopper or food processor, place onion, zucchini and peeled carrot and pulse until very fine. Otherwise, chop finely with a knife. I love this one!
      3. Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add onion, zucchini and carrot to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add ground turkey to the skillet along with minced garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
      4. Add chicken broth and taco seasoning to skillet and cook for 2-3 more minutes, until meat is thoroughly cooked.
      5. Unwrap pie crust and place on a lightly floured surface.
      6. Place a heaping spoon of taco meat on one side of your pie crust and top with shredded cheese. Fold in half, and seal edges with a fork. Repeat with all pie crusts.
      7. Spray the top of each taco with olive oil spray and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
      8. Bake on center wrack for 12 minutes (the air fryer also works great for these!)
      9. Enjoy!! I pack with guacamole, salsa, sweet bell peppers and a fruit for the kids
