Taco Ranch Bites Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350ºF (175°C).
- In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground turkey until fully cooked. Drain off any excess liquid.
- Stir in the reduced-sodium taco seasoning (or homemade seasoning) and diced tomatoes with green chiles. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, ensuring the mixture is well combined. Remove from heat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese, fat-free plain Greek yogurt, and the taco meat mixture.
- Evenly distribute the taco mixture into the frozen phyllo tart shells.
- Arrange the filled tart shells on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling. If baking from frozen, add 2-3 minutes to the baking time.
- Once baked, remove the Taco Ranch Bites from the oven and serve them warm.
