Instructions

Brown the turkey in a large skillet, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Season it with salt, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, and cumin.

Stir in the salsa and water. Add frozen riced cauliflower and corn (no need to defrost them first). Cook 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are cooked. Stir in the black beans and about half of the grated cheese. Simmer another few minutes until cheese is melted.

Sprinkle the remaining cheese evenly over the skillet and cover with a lid for a minute until melted. Uncover and garnish with optional garnishes like avocado slices and cilantro. Serve with sour cream or Greek yogurt and or tortilla chips for scooping, if desired.
