Directions

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) degrees.
Heat canola oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Sauté onions for 4-6 minutes until lightly browned.
Add ground turkey. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until lightly browned and cooked through, about 8-10 mins.
Add crushed tomatoes and spices and stir to incorporate. Cook for an additional 5 minutes. Set the turkey mixture aside to cool.
Take each piece of tortilla and press into the muffin cup of a muffin tin to create a cup. Bake for 10-12 minutes until browned and crispy.
To assemble: place 1 1/2-2 tbsp of ground turkey mixture into each cup. Top with 1-1 1/2 tsp sour cream, lettuce, cherry tomato slices, jalapeno slices and cheese. Serve at room temperature.
