This dish is not much too look. I know we eat with our eyes first and at first look, this dish looks like it will taste bland. But that is the exact opposite. This dish is flavorful and oh so delicious. Plus you can use your preferred ground meat and broth. I used ground turkey, because that is the ground meat I almost always use and I use beef broth because I had some leftover that I needed to use up. In fact I had the exact amount of leftover beef broth that I needed, I love it when things work out that way.
Essentially what we have here is the insides of a burrito, which, in my opinion is the best part. Add a some rice and scoop it into a bowl and top it with your favorite toppings. I just used sour cream, because that is what I had on hand, but salsa, avocado, green onions, guacamole, would all work well as toppings.
