Italian Turkey Cutlets

I found this recipe from my friend Melanie's blog and I tweaked it to fit my own needs. It was DELISH and I can't wait to have the leftovers for lunch today!


This is a picture of what my Italian Turkey Cutlets looked like, but it's not my picture. We had green beans, not broccoli ;)


Ingredients:
  • 1 package of Turkey Breast Cutlets, fat trimmed
  • 2 Tbsp (aprox.)  of Italian seasonings
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 can (15 ozs) organic, no salt added diced tomatoes
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup 2% shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Lay a piece of foil in the bottom of a 9 x 13 glass baking dish.
  3. Lay in the turkey breast cutlets.
  4. Top cutlets with the Italian Seasoning. I don't measure mine out, I just sprinkle it on till it looks good!
  5. Layer on the minced garlic and diced onion.
  6. Top the garlic and onion with the diced tomatoes.
  7. Sprinkle the cheese on top.
  8. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes, or until the turkey breast is cooked through.
  9. Serve with whatever you choose. We had brown rice and no salt added green beans with ours. 
  10. ENJOY!

Clean Taco Salad

This dinner is a popular one in our house! I make 2 pans of meat - 1 of beef for hubs and 1 of ground turkey for me! Seriously - this is the easiest dinner ever! If you don't want it as a salad, roll up a traditional soft taco in a whole wheat shell!


Ingredients:
  • 1 pound ground turkey breast
  • 1 package of low sodium Taco Seasoning
  • 1/3 - 1/2 cup of water
  • 1 - 2 ounces of 0% Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1 ounce 2% grated cheddar cheese
  • Bag of frozen corn or can of corn
  • Can of black beans
  • Fresh Salsa
  • As much lettuce as your little heart desires!

Directions:
  1. Brown the turkey breast and drain if there is any fat in the pan.
  2. Turn heat to low.
  3. Return the meat to the heat and add taco seasoning and 1/3 - 1/2 cup of water. 
  4. Let the sauce thicken.
  5. Heat up corn and beans according to the packaging.
  6. Prepare your bed of lettuce.
  7. Top your lettuce with the meat, cheese, corn, beans, yogurt, and salsa.
  8. Enjoy!
