Great kid-friendly ground turkey recipe — your kids will eat the burritos and ask for more! Ground turkey, crushed tomatoes, rice, onions, garlic, and celery wrapped in red cabbage within a white tortilla shell. We go to a lot of evening swim meets, and our kids love them for an on-the-go dinner. If we told them what was inside, they would say, "Ew!" Make these without cheese for a lighter option.

Ingredients

  • water to cover:
  • uncooked brown rice: 1 cup
  • head red cabbage: 1 piece
  • olive oil: 0.25 cup
  • red onion: 0.5 piece (chopped)
  • stalk celery: 1 piece (chopped)
  • clove garlic: 1 piece (minced)
  • ground turkey: 1 pound
  • sea salt: (to taste)
  • tomatoes: 1 can (8 ounce can, crushed)
  • flour tortillas: 12 piece (10 inch)

  1. Bring water and brown rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes.

  2. Cut off stem of red cabbage. Peel off leaves gently, being careful not to tear. Place individual leaves gently into a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes; reduce heat and simmer until tender but still crunchy and red, 8 to 10 minutes more. Drain.

  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté onion, celery, and garlic until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in turkey and season with salt. Cook and stir until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes and cooked rice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors combine, 10 to 15 minutes more.
