I like taking ground turkey and adding an egg and seasoned bread crumbs. Add in garlic salt and pepper and cook on a grill.

Brown the turkey meat along with seasoning and onions
She uses a thin-crust dough, so top off the crust
400 Degree's.... really doesn't take long about 10-12 minutes (to touch)
until the crust is brown and firm

then top it off with fresh veggies and cheese.

Just a note about the ground turkey... make sure you buy ground turkey BREAST. Otherwise it can be thigh meat and skin, which isn't really all that awesome for you.

I use that mix and add sliced celery and diced bell pepper!

We buy ground turkey at Costco in bulk. Its the hormone free, 98% fat free stuff. We divide it up into smaller portions and freeze it. I don't got time to break down full turkeys. Nor hunt them either.

Tonight we are doing.....

Tilapia (frozen filets - broiled with EVOO and cajun seasoning, serve with lemon)
Steamed broccoli (with lemon and sea salt - after cooking)
Peaches and Cream Corn (for the kids - not me!)
Brown rice

This is a meal we have a lot, and it is soooo easy. My kids love it all too.

word up. I think it was the Butterball brand over in the meat section (not the frozen section). I can't remember what the size was. I wanna say around 5 lbs. Comes in the tray with plastic wrap, not the casing roll. They've had it every trip we've ever made, so it wasn't one of those like select products. I dunno.

We take it home, divide up the portions and then freeze it....is what I meant.
