Tex Mex Turkey Oven Sandwich

I was looking around for recipes on the interweb the other day and came across a recipe for an oven turkey sandwich. In this recipe they use seasoned ground turkey and vegetables with poultry seasoning and topped it with a sour cream cheesy mess. I thought it was an interesting idea, and decided to come up with my own version.

Tex Mex Turkey Oven Sandwich (Serves 6 at 6 points a piece)

Ingredients:

1 pound lean ground turkey
15 1/2 oz diced tomatoes (drained)
15 1/2 oz canned kidney beans (rinsed and drained)
1/4 cup onion(s) 1/4 cup green pepper(s)
1/4 cup sweet red pepper(s)
1 clove garlic clove(s)
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
4 oz Kraft 2% Milk Reduced Fat Natural Cheese Mild Cheddar Cheese
3 pitas ( I use the Kangaroo pitas from Kroger, they are 2 points a piece)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Brown meat, then add peppers, onion, and garlic. Cook for about three minutes or so or until the vegetables are tender. Once the vegetables are tender add the tomatoes, beans, chili powder, and cumin. Cook until heated through. Split pitas and place on a cooking sheet. Spread meat mixture on top of the pitas and top with cheese. Cook in oven for about 10 minutes.

I was pleasantly surprised at how this turned out. The pitas got very crispy and crunchy. The topping was pleasing to the eye and still very tasty. The fun thing about something like this is you can change the flavors to whatever you want. I think it might be fun to use ground turkey, carrots, onions, celery and poultry seasoning. That would have an extremely different taste to it. You can also put the topping on a slice of bread if you didn't want to use a pita. The possibilities are endless :)
