Directions

Prep 10 minCook 15 min
  1. 1

    Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high and lightly coat with cooking spray. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up, until browned, 5–10 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

  2. 2

    Stir in the taco seasoning and water. Simmer, stirring, until the liquid reduces and the meat is well coated and slightly thickened, 1–2 minutes. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded lettuce, corn, and cherry tomatoes.

  4. 4

    Top the salad with the warm turkey mixture and add tortilla chips right before serving to keep them crunchy. Toss at the table, if desired, and serve immediately.
