Steps

1Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and a line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Coat the parchment in 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
2Make the Ground Turkey Mixture
3Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a generous drizzle of olive oil and then add the ground turkey. Brown the meat, breaking it up as it cooks.
4Once the meat has browned, add the garlic, grated zucchini, black beans, and taco seasoning.
5Continue to cook for 3-4 more minutes until the zucchini is tender. Remove from the heat and set aside.
6Soften the Tortillas
7Wrap the tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15-30 seconds.
8Prep the Cheese
9Shred the cheeses and then toss together in a bowl until combined.
10Place the tortillas on the prepared baking sheet and then add around 1/3 cup of cheese to each tortilla.
11Next add around 1/4-1/3 a cup of the ground turkey mixture to one side of the tortilla.
12Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the tacos for 2-3 minutes until the cheese has started to melt. Remove the tacos from the oven and then fold over the cheese side of the tacos to close them. Spray the tops of the tacos with a generous spray of avocado or olive oil spray.
13Return the tacos to the oven and let them bake for 30-35 minutes until they’re golden brown and crisp, flipping halfway through.
14Serve the tacos hot with all your favorite toppings!
