      Directions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. Wash hands with soap and water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Preheat the oven at 450 degrees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Wash potatoes under running water and slice into small circles about 1\/4 inch thick.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Lightly coat the potato slices with oil (or spray for 3 seconds with cooking spray).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. Arrange slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, depending on desired darkness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      6. While the potatoes bake, add ground turkey and chili powder to a skillet. Cook, stirring over medium heat (300 degrees in an electric skillet) for 8-10 minutes, until turkey browns, or temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      7. Remove potatoes from the oven.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      8. Transfer baked potatoes to a casserole dish or an oven-safe dish. Top with turkey and sprinkle with cheese. Put back in the oven to melt the cheese, about 2 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      9. Remove from oven and top with lettuce, tomato, cilantro, and salsa.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n
