Breakfast Turkey Tacos with Apple Salsa

5/4/18

Breakfast Turkey Tacos | www.brunchnbites.com

This turkey taco with apple salsa is breakfast level: ridiculous. And I’m going to tell you all about them, but first, let’s take a look at why you should definitely add this recipe to your breakfast rotation immediately.

  • Breakfast tacos are super yummy.
  • They are always a good thing to get you going in the morning.
  • Apple salsa is also surprisingly awesome. Plus, an apple a day keeps the doctor away.
  • Combine both into one – what a jackpot!

These breakfast turkey tacos with apple salsa are a quick and scrumptious breakfast go-to and are meant to be shared with your favorite people, especially for Cinco de Mayo. Forget mimosas – you need margaritas and these tacos in both hands. Yip, it’s going to be a handful, but you will love every single delicious bite.

Confession: I’ve never had or made apple salsa before, so I used a combination of mango and apple in my first attempt to shake things up. And guess what… I loved it! I adore the crunchiness and sweetness of this combination, especially when mixed with the turkey.

I’m using Piñata’s apples, which are very versatile and great for baking, cooking, salads, grilling, juicing, freezing, and of course – fresh snacking. It’s truly an apple with a tropical twist that really pairs well with the mango and turkey for these tacos.

Piñata apples are harvested in mid-October at Stemilt’s Washington State orchards and are available from November through May each year. So be sure to get yours as soon as you can so you can enjoy this recipe along with me.  Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Ahhh, this. Now THIS is a crave-able, delectable, irresistible salsa that will quickly become a favorite for spring and summer breakfasts.

    I love the sound of these tacos. Poultry with fruit is a delicious combo, which is popular in many European countries. Your apple salsa looks great!
