  9. naomik says:

    Made this last night for supper and it was a hit! I added some peppers and onions before cooking the turkey and added a little shredded cheese on top at the end. It was delicious! We usually do a weekly "breakfast for supper" day at our house and this recipe is definitely going to make the menu again! Thanks!

    I made this as a dinner meal. I would add another cup of salsa and serve it over rice to give it more dinnertime substance. The flavor is good, and really, it couldn't be any easier. Service with a salad and pickled beets. Simple and inexpensive
