Hi everyone. Welcome back to another edition of Tailgate Talk. Each week I recap some of the major games from the week before and preview the games next week. Feel free to talk about the games, off season antics, seasons past, health concerns, ethics, the bands, the mascots, or what have you. However, if you’re here to complain about “sportsball,” this is simply not the forum for you, okay?

This weeks tailgate recipe: Turkey Breakfast Tacos courtesy of Martha Stewart

INGREDIENTS: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil; 3/4 cup thinly sliced onion (from 1 small); 2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves); Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper; 1 1/2 cups shredded cooked turkey; 1/4 cup spicy red or green salsa, plus more for serving; 8 (6-inch) corn tortillas; 3/4 cup mashed sweet potatoes, heated; Sour cream, grated extra-sharp cheddar, fried eggs (optional), and lime wedges, for serving DIRECTIONS: Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add turkey and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in salsa and heat through, about 1 minute more. Place a tortilla directly on a gas flame or in a heavy skillet over high heat. When edges begin to char, about 15 seconds, turn; cook second side until bubbles form all over surface, about 15 seconds more. Wrap in a clean kitchen towel. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Layer each tortilla with mashed sweet potatoes, then turkey mixture. Top with salsa, sour cream, cheese, and eggs. Serve, with lime wedges.
