Your ground turkey tacos will have amazing flavor and fewer calories because of the ground turkey! It is a little spicy, but our family enjoys it this way. Because it has so much flavor, you cannot even tell it's not ground beef. It tastes great in tacos or as a topping for baked potatoes.

Spicy Old Bay Skinny Fries
Leave that bag of frozen french fries in the freezer because these fries are just about as easy to make. They just might become your new favorite fries. An ice-cold bottle of beer is the perfect side kick.
Quick Classic Gazpacho
For the ultimate gazpacho, you must peel, seed, dice, salt, and drain really good, vine-ripened tomatoes. But if you don't have time to fuss with fresh tomatoes, try this gazpacho with canned tomatoes. I've found the canned variety makes a fine substitute. Another advantage? Fresh tomatoes start to deteriorate as soon as the soup is refrigerated, but canned tomatoes are unaffected by the chill.
Homemade Pizza Sauce from Scratch
I noticed that most (all?) of the pizza sauce recipes call for either tomato paste or tomato sauce or both. I wanted to do it from scratch! So I experimented until I got it right. This is much better than the store-bought sauce with none of the preservatives.
