Turkey Taco Throwback

When I was a kid, we would always have ground turkey tacos in crunchy shells. As I was walking down the protein aisle at the market and saw the ground turkey breast on sale, I knew that I just had to have turkey tacos for dinner! My husband prefers the soft shell over crunchy, so I got crunchy taco shells for myself and whole wheat tortillas for him.
