In a small saucepan, combine the white rice, water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a low simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork. Done when tender and water is absorbed.
While the rice cooks, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeno in a small bowl with a pinch of salt. Set aside to let the flavors develop.
Coat a 12-inch skillet with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and diced onion. Cook, breaking the meat into crumbles, for 6 to 8 minutes until the onion is soft and the turkey is cooked through. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Stir in the minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, and the remaining salt. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the black beans and cook for 2 minutes more until the beans are heated through.
Place the fluffed rice in a bowl and top with the seasoned turkey and black bean mixture. Finish with the fresh salsa.
