Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil
2 red onions, sliced
2 bell peppers (preferably 1 red and 1 yellow), seeded, sliced
4 cups diced leftover cooked turkey meat
3/4 cup purchased fresh fire-roasted salsa
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 8-ounce package grated Mexican 4-cheese blend (about 2 cups)
3/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
6 burrito-size flour tortillas

Steps:

Preheat oven to 300°F. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and bell peppers; sauté until tender and golden, about 15 minutes. Add turkey, salsa, and cumin; stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in cheese and cilantro; season generously with salt and pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
Working with 1 tortilla at a time, heat tortilla directly over medium-high gas flame (or in dry skillet over medium-high heat) until warm, softened, and browned in spots, about 30 seconds per side. Place tortilla on work surface. Spoon 1 cup warm turkey mixture along center of tortilla; fold sides in over filling, then roll up tortilla to enclose filling. Place burrito seam side down on baking sheet, and place in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling.

GROUND TURKEY BURRITOS THAT WILL FOOL YOUR KIDS

Ground Turkey Burritos That Will Fool Your Kids image

Great burritos that your kids will eat and ask for more. Ground turkey, crushed tomatoes, rice, onions, garlic, and celery wrapped in red cabbage within a white tortilla shell. We go to a lot of evening swim meets and our kids love them. If we told them what was inside they would say Eww! Without cheese, this is a lighter dinner alternative on the go.

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

water to cover
1 cup uncooked brown rice
1 head red cabbage
¼ cup olive oil
½ red onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pound ground turkey
sea salt to taste
1 (8 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
12 (10 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

Bring water and brown rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes.
Cut off the stem of the red cabbage. Peel leaves off gently, being careful not to tear. Place individual leaves gently into a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes; reduce heat and simmer until tender but still crunchy and red, 8 to 10 minutes more. Drain.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion, celery, and garlic until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in turkey meat and season with salt. Cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes and cooked rice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors combine, 10 to 15 minutes more.
Place 1 cabbage leaf on top of each tortilla. Fill with the turkey-rice mixture. Fold the bottom end up and roll into a tight burrito.
Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Add burritos in batches; cook, flipping as necessary, until outsides are crunchy, about 5 minutes.
