NEW REIPE!!! Gluten Free Turkey Taco Casserole!!

This is a household favorite. I remember making it for the first time and thinking my husband is going to hate it. It looked good and smelled good but he isn't a HUGE Mexican fan like me and it was my first time making it and trying it so I didn't know what to expect. What I didn't expect was for him to fall in love with it. We ended up eating the whole pan (pre 21 day fix)!! It is CLEAN, Gluten free, and DELICIOUS!!! Also when it is hubby approved that is a major plus. This is something you must try and get ready because it will be something you want to make weekly but try and save it for a monthly treat! :)




Ingredients:
1 lbs lean ground turkey, browned and drained.
2 avocados diced
Spinach
Plain Greek Yogurt (I like the trader joes organic brand)
Salsa
Low fat Cheddar Cheese (omit if you are stripping down your own meal plan)
Corn Tortilla Shells (Hard ones) or corn chips (no salt added)

 Homemade taco seasoning
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 lime
Blend together in mixer place in fridge till ready to use.

Directions:
Brown turkey in a pan over medium high heat.
Drain off the liquid and add homemade taco seasoning with 1/4 c water.
Stir until combined.
Layer a baking dish with crunched up taco shells or chips.
Then put a layer of ground meat, layer of spinach, layer of avocados, thin layer of salsa, thin layer of greek yogurt, and a tiny bit of cheddar cheese (emphasize TINY), then layer with again with ground meat, spinach, avocados, salsa greek yogurt and cheddar cheese. The add a few more chips or shells on top.
 Heat in 450 Degree oven for 15 minutes.

 You can add other toppings if you would like once finished.

 You can also serve it with a side of green beans or asparagus.
