Main Ingredients
- 6 mini soft tortillas

- 1/2 red onion chopped
- 1 can black beans
- 14 oz diced tomatoes canned
- 2 tbsp butter
- to taste extra virgin olive oil
- to taste feta cheese
- to taste garlic powder
- to taste garlic salt
- to taste cumin

Instructions
Cook the Meat and Veggies
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook ground turkey with garlic powder, garlic salt, black pepper, and cumin until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, drizzle with olive oil and sauté red onion and mini sweet peppers until softened.
- Add black beans and a pinch of garlic powder, stir to combine, then return cooked turkey to the skillet and mix with diced tomatoes. Set aside.
Prepare the Eggs
- In a separate pan, melt butter over medium-low heat and scramble the eggs until fluffy and just set. Remove from heat.
Assemble and Crisp Tacos
- Heat a cast iron or nonstick pan over high heat and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Crisp each tortilla for about 2 minutes per side until lightly browned but still pliable.
- Fill tortillas with scrambled eggs, turkey-vegetable mixture, and sprinkle with feta cheese. Arrange upright in a pan or muffin tin to hold shape.
- Sprinkle with cumin and paprika, then broil for 2-3 minutes until feta is slightly golden.
Serve
- Drizzle with creamy dressing and serve with a spoonful of sour cream on each taco or on the side.
Notes
- For fluffier eggs, cook over low heat and stir gently.
- Use a muffin tin to help the tortillas hold their shape when filling.
