Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or to taste

• 1 small white onion, diced

• 1 pound ground turkey

• 1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix

• 1 head lettuce, chopped

• 1 (15 ounce) can corn, drained

• 1 (14 ounce) can black beans, drained

• 1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced

• 4 green onions, chopped

• 1/3 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

• 1/4 cup spicy ranch-style salad dressing

Directions

1 Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in hot oil until translucent, about 5 minutes. Break ground turkey into small chunks and add to skillet; cook and stir until beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle taco seasoning over the turkey mixture; continue to cook and stir until turkey is completely browned through, 5 to 7 minutes more.
