Ground turkey now an option at Del Taco

So you made a New Year’s resolution to lose a little weight, but not at the expense of your fast food habit, right?

Well, Del Taco might have just the thing: Turkey!

The chain recently introduced ground turkey as an option for its tacos and CrunchTada.

The seasoned ground turkey has 33 percent less fat compared to the chain’s seasoned ground beef.

A hard-shell turkey taco has just 150 calories.

The fast food chain is offering guests a coupon for a free turkey taco with any purchase. Just click here to get yours.

The chain is also in the midst of a Pinterest contest to give away a $500 American Express gift card. Click here for all the details.

And thanks to the folks at Del Taco, we have our own little contest going on right here.

We don’t have a $500 gift card to give away, but we do have three $5 Del Taco gift certificates to give away so you can try the new turkey items for yourself.
