Healthy Taco Bake

Jump to Recipe

I love taking popular foods like and making them healthy. That is exactly what I did with this Healthy Taco Bake.

I used turkey burger instead of hamburger. This is a healthier alternative to ground beef and I use it for my spaghetti and tacos too. I use greek yogurt in place of sour cream. Again, another healthier option.

I also like to make my own taco seasoning. I have a recipe down below. Making your own taco seasoning is free of preservative and sugar. The stuff we don’t want in our diet. I make my own and store it in a glass jar.

I love using ancho chili pepper season because it adds a great flavor to this recipe. Ancho powder is made from ground ancho chilies. It has a mild heat and sweet fruity flavor. It’s used in authentic Mexican recipes. Don’t get this confused with traditional chili powder. It’s different. If you don’t have this on hand you can certainly leave it out. This recipe is still delicious without it.

You can also make this recipe Faster Way to Fat Loss Friendly by leaving out the dairy and using gluten-free tortilla shells. Leave out the tortilla shells for Paleo and Keto. You can adjust this recipe to your liking. That’s why I love it so much.

  • 2 Tablespoon  Taco Seasoning I make homemade see recipe below
  • 1 teaspoon Ancho Chile Pepper
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 3.8 oz. can sliced black olives, drained
