Preparation
1
Roast veggies

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Heat Guide for Step 1: 1/8 tsp mild, 1/4 tsp medium, 1/2 tsp spicy and 1 tsp extra-spicy. Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices. Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices. Add peppers, three-quarters of the onions, half the Mexican Seasoning, 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) and 1/8 tsp chipotle powder to an unlined baking sheet. (NOTE: Reference heat guide.) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender, 12-14 min.

2
Make salsa fresca

Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lime (whole lime for 4 ppl). Cut any remaining lime into wedges. Cut tomatoes into 1/4-inch pieces. Finely chop remaining onions. Add tomatoes, chopped onions, 1/2 tsp sugar, 1/2 tbsp lime juice and 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl all for 4 ppl) to a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. Set aside.

3
Make lime crema

Add sour cream and lime zest to another small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. Set aside.

4
Cook turkey

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then turkey. Cook, breaking up turkey into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.** Add remaining Mexican Seasoning. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min. Season with pepper, to taste.

5
Warm tortillas

Meanwhile, wrap tortillas in foil, then place in the top of the oven until warm, 4-5 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas!)

6
Finish and serve

Top tortillas with turkey and veggies, then spoon salsa fresca over top. Dollop with lime crema and sprinkle with cheese. Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
