Ingredients

1 lb ground turkey (I prefer 93% lean)
1 tsp cumin
½ tsp chili powder
½ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp black pepper
cayenne optional, to taste
olive oil
½ large yellow onion or 1 small one, diced
10 oz frozen cauliflower rice

1 can black beans (15oz), drained & rinsed
15oz enchilada sauce
1 cup salsa
5-6 small corn tortillas cut into strips & then halved

Instructions

Bring a large pan to medium heat. Once hot, lightly coat the pan with oil, then add ground turkey and start breaking it apart with your spatula. Season with cumin, chili powder, kosher salt, pepper & cayenne. Continue cooking and breaking apart until done through (about 4 minutes). Remove ground turkey from the pan and set aside.

Add a bit more oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Then, add onion and frozen cauliflower rice and season with kosher salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.

Add back in the cooked turkey, beans, enchilada sauce and salsa. Stir until incorporated. Then, reduce heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 5 minutes.

Gently stir in the tortilla strips so you don't break them. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the top of the skillet, cover with a lid and continue to let it cook at medium-low heat until the cheese is melted.
