These tacos were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I used a hot salsa. Next time I'll use a milder salsa.

I'm not a big fan of turkey, but these tacos were actually really good. The flavor of the turkey was really mild and the toppings really made the dish.

These tacos are a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. They're also a lot healthier than traditional tacos.

The turkey was a bit dry, but the overall flavor of the tacos was good. I'll try cooking the turkey for a shorter amount of time next time.

These tacos were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.
