Turkey Taco stuffed yams

These Turkey Taco Stuffed Yams are so yummy!
My hubby wants to have them once a week!

I love that it is super simple, filling and healthy meal!
This is such a great meal to make on a weeknight because it is so easy…just pop a yam or two into the oven for 45 min to an hour.
Then brown the turkey meat and onions, add canned beans and corn.
Top with avocado, sour cream, corn chips and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.
                  Kids will love this as much as adults.
This is a super fun meal for Halloween night especially with cool spooky corn chips from Target. What kind of quick meals do you like to cook for your family on the week nights?
This dinner not only tastes good but it look good too!
Let me know if you try it!

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
