I love that this recipe uses ground turkey instead of beef. It's a healthier option and it tastes just as good.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I left it out of my tacos. They were still delicious.

These tacos are a great way to use up leftover turkey. I made them the day after Thanksgiving and they were a hit.

I didn't have any taco shells, so I used tortillas instead. They worked just as well.

The turkey was a little dry. I think I would cook it for less time next time.

These tacos were a little bland for my taste. I would add more seasoning to the turkey next time.

These tacos are easy to make and perfect for a weeknight meal. The turkey is cooked in the slow cooker, so you can just set it and forget it.
