Toppings:
In a small bowl, stir together the chili powder, cumin and oregano.
In a nonstick frying pan over medium heat, add the ground turkey and onion. Cook until the turkey is browned and onion is clear. Drain well.

To serve, put a 1/4 cup of the turkey mixture in each tortilla.
Top each with 1 tablespoon cheese, 1/4 of the diced tomatoes, 1/2 cup shredded lettuce and 2 tablespoons salsa.
Fold in both sides of each tortilla up over the filling, and then roll to close.
Serve right away.
