Tex-Mex Turkey Tenderloin

Talk about an easy meal!  Two ingredients for the turkey, some rice, and condiments of your choice, you really can't beat this.  This is one of those recipes you could make over and over again, each time with a different end result. 

Start with a turkey tenderloin - my package came with three smaller ones, about one pound total.  Then, add some refrigerated salsa - preferably the fresh, chunky kind - to the heat and flavor of your liking.  I used a sweet onion variety.  A touch of water and you're good to go.  That's it.  It's that easy.

Served over rice and topped with your favorites - in our house it was cheese, avocado, and sour cream - you have a quick and easy - and healthy - meal!
