I saw some great recipes on Oprah in January 2009 about Superbowl party foods, so I made my own healthy version of a couple of the dishes.
Taco Bean Dip & Fingerling Potato Skins
This makes great finger food or individual servings.
Brown 1.2lbs of extra lean ground turkey, add 1 cup chopped and sautéed mushrooms and onions. Add 2 large diced tomatoes and ¼ chopped cilantro. Add Low sodium taco seasoning and half of a squeezed lime and let simmer until desired consistency. Mix 1 can fat free or regular refried beans with ¼ cup chopped onions, half of small lime, and chopped cilantro.
Cut fingerlings potatoes in half and bake on cookie sheet at 350 for 15 minutes. Remove and let cool. Scoop out inside of potato. Place skins back on cookie sheet and coat with butter flavored cooking spray, and any other desired seasonings. Place back in oven at 350 for about 15 minutes or until crisp.
Serving size: Mix 4oz taco mix with ¼ cup beans. Serve with 2 oz potato skins. (Optional toppings low-fat shredded cheese, black olives, green onions, shredded lettuce, low-fat sour cream). Use potato skins to scoop turkey/bean mix.
