Healthy, homemade fast-food is a cinch with this Latin-inspired recipe. We remade this traditional dish with ground turkey breast instead of ground beef. Make sure your mango is ripe but firm. If you don't have any, use frozen mango chunks instead. This meal freezes well so double the recipe, freeze in small containers and enjoy on too-busy-to-cook nights. When ready to eat, thaw the dish in the refrigerator and reheat in a large skillet over medium-heat for about 10 minutes. Add more salsa if it's a little dry.
