The first and the most important step is to get all the ingredients. This ground turkey Mexican pie is not seasonal, so it can be prepared throughout the whole year.
Ground turkey meat. Instead of turkey, you can use any other.
Red onions, chili peppers, corn, avocado, spinach, red pepper, coriander, onion, garlic, grated cheese (cheddar or gouda), some black beans (can be canned), sour cream for the sauce.
Main ingredients without which we can’t do it
We have to cut everything into pieces. This is the hardest part of this recipe.
Then we cook.
Put olive oil in a large skillet bowl and place over medium heat. Once hot, add garlic and red onion and after 2 minutes add ground turkey and red pepper.

Before oven, it looked like this. I didn’t try to have all pieces of the exactly same size and look. Top the phyllo pastry or egg rolls with whisked egg, for the golden brown crust.

Once baked, they look very crispy and rustic. I’ll bet you in a chocolate that you’ll grab it immediately.

Of course, we need some avocado for the avocado sauce (from the beginning of the text), sour cream, lime, onion and garlic powder, salt, coriander. All this ingredients mix in the blender.
