Instructions
For the Turkey:
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Thoroughly combine spices with ground turkey in a mixing bowl and add to the heated skillet. Spread the turkey around to make as much contact with the pan. Let cook for around 5 minutes or until the turkey begins to brown.
Once the turkey has gotten some color, stir it around and break in to smaller bits. Lower heat to medium-low to fully cook through. Stir occasionally for about 5 minutes and set aside on a clean plate when done.
For the Tortillas:
Heat 1/4 cup corn oil in a cast iron skillet on medium heat. Test for sizzle with piece of tortilla. One hot enough, place entire tortilla in to hot oil to fry, about 2 minutes per side.
Remove tortilla from oil and place on layers of paper towels to dry and cool off.
Once cool, break in to smaller pieces to put in to salad.
Alternatively, use an unflavored, low or no salt chip from a bag.
For the Salad:
Prepare the vegetables as instructed, (shred, mince, dice, etc.).
Add cabbage to the bowl, season with a pinch of salt and squeeze 1 whole lime on top. Mix well.
