  • ¾ cup chopped green bell pepper

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

  1. Crumble turkey into a large skillet over medium heat. Stir onion, bell pepper, and garlic into turkey. Cook and stir until turkey is completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes.

  3. Layer about 3/4 cup turkey mixture, 1 tortilla, and 1/2 cup cheese mixture in the bottom of a 5-quart slow cooker; repeat layers until ingredients are fully used, ending with a cheese layer.
