Brown ground turkey in a frying pan. Drain grease if necessary; ground turkey has less fat, so you may not want to drain it.
Warm black beans on low heat with a splash of water and 1/3 of the taco seasoning pack. Cook until the beans absorb almost all of the water, stirring occasionally.
Add the rest of the seasoning to the meat. Add a splash of water to the meat, and spread the seasoning evenly. Warm taco shells in the oven on low heat while dicing tomatoes.
