I am so excited to share that I am officially training for my first Half Marathon. It’s an exciting feeling but I know what lies ahead of me. It’s not going to be easy but it is certainly going to be rewarding and thrilling. I feel as if this is the beginning of something new. A beginning of a new addiction and hopefully many more races will follow. I am a week into my training, feeling great and having a sense of accomplishment. Excitement and exhaustion lies ahead. Let’s talk about these loaded nachos. Ground turkey simmered in enchilada sauce makes an excellent addition and is much healthier too. I layered the nachos so that there is flavor in every bite. Refried beans, enchilada turkey and habanero cheddar cheese layered in whole grain tortilla chips, then topped with avocado, corn, tomato and jalapeño is football food made in heaven. This is a dish that will surely make your guests happy during the big game. Being insane hot sauce addicts we can handle some pretty spicy sauces so naturally this entire skillet got smothered in one of our favorites. Hot sauce is a must with any nacho dish. I added hot sauce to the enchilada turkey and the refried beans as well. Of course you can adjust to your liking. Have a delicious week! Eat, smile and be happy! Turkey Enchilada Loaded Nachos
