I started with some diced onion and shredded carrots.I browned those in a bit of olive oil and some garlic. I tossed in some green chili because green chili always makes things taste better.
Finally it was time to add in the meat. We basically only use ground turkey for a number of reasons. The biggest one is that it is cheaper than ground beef.
The final touch was a bit of taco seasoning that I made up from a recipe I received during one of my Seminary Wives classes.
To fill up the taco shells I added in some refried beans with some cheese and garlic salt.
I topped that with the taco meat and lots of shredded cheese.
My goal was to get my kiddos to eat more veggies without knowing that is what they were doing. And I think I can say that I was able to make that happen.
Both kids stuffed down 2 whole tacos and were asking for more by the end of the evening. I would call that a dinner SUCCESS!!
How do you get your kids to eat more veggies? Do you have any secret tips or tricks? Let me know in the comments.
