Turkey-Potato Dinner Wrap

 Ingredients

• 3/4 pound russet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

• 1 tablespoon water

• 1 tablespoon canola oil

• 3/4 pound ground lean turkey

• 1 large carrot, shredded

• 1/3 cup sliced green onions with tops

• 2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese

• 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning or basil

• salt, to taste

• pepper, to taste

• 4 large whole-wheat or high-fiber tortillas

Instructions

1. Place potatoes in microwave-safe bowl; sprinkle with water. Cover, venting one corner. Microwave on high 5-8 minutes until potatoes are tender.
