Turkey-Potato Dinner Wrap

  • 3/4 pound Russet potatoes* cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp canola oil
  • 3/4 pound ground lean turkey
  • 1 large carrot shredded
  • 1/3 cup sliced green onions with tops
  • 1 can Tomato sauce 8 ounce can
  • 2/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp dried Italian herb seasoning or basil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large whole wheat or high fiber tortillas
  • 1 light sour cream
  1. Place potatoes in microwave-safe bowl; sprinkle with water.  Cover, venting one corner.  Microwave on HIGH 5 to 8 minutes just until potatoes are tender. (Time will depend on wattage of your oven.)
  2. Meanwhile, heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add and break up turkey; cook 5 minutes, tossing occasionally. Mix in carrot; cook 2 minutes. Add potatoes and onions; cook and toss 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium; mix in tomato sauce, cheese, and herbs.
  3. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes until mixture is hot and most of sauce is absorbed. Season with salt and pepper. On work surface, lay out tortillas. Place 3/4 cup hot turkey mixture on each; fold and roll up as for burritos.
  4. Cut in halves and place on serving plates. Accompany with sour cream, if desired.
