I use good old McCormick reduced sodium taco seasoning packet and follow the instructions except - I cook up 1.25 to 1.33 lbs of ground turkey instead of an even pound. I find that the amount of water on the envelope and the seasoning itself is enough to go around. I also try to simmer the meat in the sauce for as long as possible for the most concentrated flavor.
Other regular items on our taco table are shredded lettuce, chopped vine ripened tomatoes, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and homemade guacamole. My guac recipe is: one avocado, juice of 1/2 a lime (or more, depending on the size of the avocado), 1 T reduced fat sour cream or fat free greek yogurt, and 8-12 shakes of the Frank's Red Hot bottle.
The beauty of tacos is that there's no right or wrong way to enjoy them. Beef or turkey, tortillas or hard shells, tomatoes or salsa - do it your way. And if you have a unique slant to your tacos, do tell!
