    I meal-prepped 5 days worth of Mexican Turkey Quinoa Skillet, and it is amazing (and super easy):

    1 lb ground turkey
    1 (15 oz can) black beans
    1 cup corn kernels
    1 (15 oz can) fire-roasted diced tomatoes
    1 diced jalapeno (optional)
    0.5 cup quinoa, rinsed
    0.5 cup chicken broth
    1.5 tsp cumin
    1 tsp chili powder

    brown turkey until fully cooked. Add everything else into the same skillet, bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
    Top with avocado and a splash of lime juice when eating.
    Yum!
    Makes 5 servings and comes in at just under 400 calories per serving (avocado is extra).

    Have you ever tried freezing this?

    Yep - freezes great!
