2 Giant Turkey Tacos - 365 Calories

An easy dinner, and family favorite "Tacos" has a lot going for it, but can easily derail a low-cal diet if not careful.  Here is one I made for dinner tonight, and not only was it really filling and flavorful, but I got 2 of them for only 365 calories - TOTAL!
Ingredients:
La Tortilla Factory Whole Grain Fiber & Flax White Corn Tortilla (2 Tortillas for only 90 Calories!)
*Compared to "Stand and Stuff Taco Shells which are 130 Calories for 2, so it saves you 40 calories.

Jennie-O Lean Ground Turkey 93/7 Ground (about 4oz = 170 Calories)
McCormick Low Sodium Taco Seasoning 2 tsp dry mix (20 Calories)
Garlic & Onion (inside meat) minimal amount hard to calculate - but under 5 Calories
Seasoning of your choice (Cumin, Salt, Pepper, Cayanne, ect)
Romaine Lettuce 1/2 cup (4 Calories)
Lucurne Low Fat Sour Cream - 3 tbsp (53 Calories) - I probably could have used less... but why not.
Kraft 2% preshreded Mexican Cheese - light sprinkle on each taco (optional, didn't really add much (10 Cals)
Homemade Pico de Gallo - Roma Tomato, White Onion, Cilantro, Lime and Garlic (10-15 Calories max)
I really like Tapatio, so that's a good choice to spice it up even more, no calories, but there is a lot of sodium, so be aware of that. :)

ENJOY!!!
