    Make Kheema Curry (INdian- usually uses ground lamb, but I follow this recipe ALL the time and use turkey!!) If you don't have the ingredients, visit an Indian Grocery nearby!! Great with bread :) I make it spicier than the recipe calls for! Also, you don't have to use a pressure cooker, I just use a skillet with a lid. :)

    Ingredients:

    3/4 kg minced meat (kheema), washed and drained

    3 large onions, finely chopped

    2 tomatoes, finely chopped

    1 tbsp ginger garlic paste

    few curry leaves

    4-5 green chillis, slit

    ½ tsp turmeric pwd

    garam masala pwd (1cardamom pods, 2 cloves, 1/2″ cinnamon stick)

    salt to taste

    2 1/2 tbsps oil

    coriander leaves for garnish

    Dry roast for 3-4 mts and make a pwd:

    1/2 tbsp coriander seeds

    1/2 tsp cumin seeds

    1/2 tsp poppy seeds

    3 dry red chillis

    pinch of methi/fenugreek/menthulu seeds

    pinch of saunf/sompu/aniseed (optional)

    1 Heat oil in a pressure cooker, add green chillis, curry leaves and chopped onions and saute till the onions turn transparent, approx 4 tms.
    2 Add the ginger garlic paste and saute further for another 3 mts. Add the minced meat and turmeric pwd and cook on high without lid for 4-5 mts. Stir inbetween.
    3 Add the ground masala pwd and salt and combine well. Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 3 mts on medium flame. Add a cup of water and place lid and cook on pressure upto 4 whistles or until the meat is almost cooked. Turn off heat. After 3-4 mts, remove lid, add garam masala pwd and coriander leaves. Again cook on low flame for 8-10 mts or till you get the desired gravy consistency.
    4 Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with rotis or hot rice

    Here is a super-simple recipe that is good with ground beef or ground turkey.

    1 - pound ground beef/turkey
    2 - 15 oz cans of VegAll, drained
    2 - 15 oz cans tomato sauce or 1 can sauce and once can diced tomatoes
    Salt, pepper, garlic, hot sauce, etc.

    Brown the meat, drain it, add the vegetables and tomatoes. Heat and season to taste. Makes a very hearty soup/stew. You can also add cooked macaroni for a sort of goulash.

    Thai Turkey Meatloaf. Found this recipe today and I can't wait to make it.

    http://budgetbytes.blogspot.com/2012/06/thai-turkey-meatloaf-783-recipe-098.html


    Servings Per Recipe: 8
    Prep time: 20 min. Cook time: 60-75 min. Total: 1 hr. 35 min.

    LOAF INGREDIENTS
    2 lbs. ground turkey
    4 cloves garlic
    3-4 whole green onions
    2 inches fresh ginger
    3 Tbsp soy sauce
    1 tsp toastes sesame oil
    2 large eggs
    1.5 cups cooked jasmine rice

    GLAZE INGREDIENTS
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    2 Tbsp ketchup
    2 Tbsp sriracha sauce
    1 Tbsp rice vinegar


    STEP 1: Place the ground turkey in a large bowl. Slice the green onions and mince the garlic. Add the onion and garlic to the bowl along with the soy sauce and sesame oil. Peel the ginger and grate it directly into the bowl using a fine cheese grater. Mix everything together well.

    STEP 2: Add the eggs and cooked jasmine rice (white rice will work in a pinch). Mix everything together thoroughly. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick spray. Place the meat mixture onto the baking sheet and shape it into a loaf.

    STEP 3: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Once preheated, place the loaf inside and bake for 30 minutes. While the loaf is baking, mix together the sriracha glaze. In a small bowl stir together the brown sugar, ketchup, sriracha, and rice vinegar.

    STEP 4: After it has baked 30 minutes, remove the loaf from the oven and spoon half of the sriracha glaze over top. Bake for an additional 30 minutes. Spoon the remaining glaze over top and bake for a final 15 minutes. A meat thermometer placed in the center of the loaf should read 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

    STEP 5: Allow the loaf to rest for ten minutes before slicing.
