    Healthy Turkey Taco Meal Prep Bowl

    Have you noticed a trend lately with these meal prep bowls? I’ve been trying my hardest to avoid paying Chipotle my hard earned money during lunch as they’re literally across the street from me and it is so easy so just pop over for lunch. But sadly, my wallet does not agree with my stomach so as a compromise, last week, I shared my Chipotle Chicken Meal Prep 4 Ways and this week, I’m repurposing some of those ingredients that I bought in bulk (corn and quinoa) and made Turkey Taco Meal Prep Bowls!

    Change Up This Healthy Turkey Taco Meal Prep Bowl

    • Change up the toppings on this by adding in guacamole, sour cream, or yogurt
    • Switch up the sides with beans or lentils instead of corn
    • Bored of quinoa? Swap with brown rice, regular rice, couscous, farro, etc
    • I use Better than Buillon in Chicken to cook my quinoa in to add some extra flavour. Check out other flavoured stocks to change the quinoa flavour up!

    Cook Time: 20 minutes mins
    Total Time: 30 minutes mins
    Servings: 4 servings

    Ingredients

    • 2 lb ground turkey
    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 packet taco seasoning
    • 1 cup quinoa
    • 1 tbsp chicken stock
    • 1 cup corn
    • 4 lime wedge , to serve

    Optional Toppings

    • cheese
    • guacamole
    • sour cream
    • yogurt

    Instructions

    • In a pot, cook your quinoa with the chicken stock. (Follow the instructions on the packet, it's usually 1:1 quinoa to water ratio)
    • If you're using frozen corn, bring a pot of water to boil and cook your corn.
    • While the quinoa is cooking, start cooking your turkey with the garlic and taco seasoning.
    • Once everything is done, assemble the meal prep bowls by dividing up the turkey, quinoa, corn, and lemon wedge. Optional toppings include guacamole, sour cream, and yogurt but it needs to be added when serving as it cannot be reheated!
