Ask a grown-up to help you heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the lean ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until it's browned all over. Drain any extra fat.

Stir in the finely diced onion and minced garlic. Cook for about 3 minutes until the onion is soft. This is where our secret veggie comes in! Add the grated zucchini (make sure it's squeezed dry so our tacos aren't watery) and cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it's soft and blends right in with the turkey. No one will ever know it's there!

Sprinkle in the taco seasoning and stir well to coat all the turkey and veggies. Add the tomato paste and water, stirring until everything is mixed and bubbly. Let it simmer gently for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to mix and the sauce to thicken a little. Keep it warm.

While the filling is simmering, warm your mini tortillas. You can do this by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 30-60 seconds, or by heating them briefly in a dry skillet for about 15 seconds per side until soft and pliable. Be careful, they can get hot!

Now for the fun part: building your tacos! Let everyone choose their favorite toppings. Lay out the warm tortillas, spoon in some of the yummy turkey filling, and then add shredded cheese, lettuce, a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, and a spoonful of mild salsa. Get creative and make your tacos look super cool!

Enjoy your delicious Super Secret Turkey Tacos! Don't forget to tell your grown-ups how good they are.
