Either way I have the perfect recipe for you! This is warm, comforting, delicious, light and perfect for a football party!
My Sloppy Taco Turkey Sliders fit everything you a looking for and pack big flavor without any heavy ingredients!
These little sliders are always a snap to whip up as they use very little ingredients but good flavorful ones like Hunt’s® ORGANIC Diced Tomatoes.
I always keep Hunt’s® ORGANIC Diced Tomatoes on hand because not only are they delicious and can help me get in and out of the kitchen in a snap but instead of using chemicals to peel their tomatoes Hunt’s® peels their tomatoes using FlashSteam which is just steam from hot water. So I know there are no chemical by-products on my tomatoes. Also I love that Hunt’s® cans their diced, whole, stewed and crushed tomatoes within hours after harvest, so I know we are getting the freshest tomatoes, yum!
I recently just discovered their organic line and I am in love!! I always buy organic when it is available and I love that not only can I get my tomato sauce, paste and diced tomatoes in organic but it is from a brand I already love, trust and use. Plus I can pick up this amazing organic line right in my regular grocery store. I am hooked!
Now onto this delicious recipe! I saute up a mix of 3 colored peppers and a little onions and cook them till soft.
Then I add some ground turkey to the pan and brown it up.
Next I add a can of Hunt’s® ORGANIC Diced Tomatoes and a little Hunt’s® ORGANIC Tomato Paste for a little richness.
The final ingredient is an envelope of your favorite taco seasoning.
I just let that cook a bit and it is done!
