    How can you make nachos better? Combine them with potatoes! Change up your toppings or trying new seasonings when cooking the ground turkey.

    Ingredients

    • 6 small red potatoes, skins on (1 pound)
    • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil or cooking spray
    • 8 ounces lean ground turkey (15% fat or less)
    • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
    • 1/2 cup reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
    • 1 cup shredded lettuce
    • 1 tomato, diced
    • 3/4 cup peeled and diced cucumber
    • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
    • 3/4 cup salsa

    Directions

    1. Wash hands with soap and water.
    2. Slice potatoes into small circles about 1/4 inch thick.
    3. Lightly coat the potato slices with oil (or spray for 3 seconds with cooking spray).
    4. Arrange slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the oven at 450 °F for 25 to 30 minutes, depending on desired darkness.
    5. Meanwhile, add ground turkey and chili powder to a skillet. Cook, stirring over medium heat (300 °F in an electric skillet) for 8 to10 minutes or until turkey browns.
    6. Remove potatoes from the oven.
    7. Transfer baked potatoes to an oven-safe dish. Top with turkey and sprinkle with cheese. Put back in the oven to melt the cheese, about 2 minutes.
    8. Remove from oven and top with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, cilantro, and salsa.
