I'm drooling just thinking about them.
I make a very similar turkey burger and they're to die for! (I like adding a little more cumin and cheyene for a little kick)
Another good recipie is a turkey and vegetable skillet (http://www.fatsecret.com/recipes/turkey-and-vegetables-skillet/Default.aspx) that is ultra easy and delicious.0 -
Absolutely anything that you would cook with ground beef works with turkey. Turkey burgers and meatloaf require more seasoning. We've used it for tacos, spaghetti, lasagna, meatballs, chili, burgers, stroganoff.....
I make this mexican cassarole that my whole family loves...
1 lb + lean ground turkey
as much frozen or canned corn as you want
1 jar + chunky salsa (any kind)
add extra veggies like onions, peppers, or even chopped FRESH spinach if you want
A little taco sauce (any kind) to taste
SUPER EASY, and delish! great for easy lunches, minus the veggies, NO CARBS!0 -
Ground turkey goulash....
This sounds delicious, thanks for sharing!0 -
This sounds really good.
I can usually substitute ground turkey in anything. I just season it really well, and I add a dab of Worcestershire sauce. That usually does the trick. Like you, my best success has been in spaghetti, or any tomato based meal. However, I have made delicious turkey burgers, and chili.
I have been trying to use it in meatloaf, but so far that hasn't worked out. I would really appreciate any suggestions for that.0 -

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
4 shiitake mushrooms, sliced
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 (16 ounce) package ground turkey
6 green onions, chopped

Try making buffalo turkey burgers with Franks Hot Sauce and 1 package of Hidden Valley Ranch Salad dressing mix (the powder stuff).....
Franks Hot Sauce has no calories. The Ranch has 80 calories per package..so spread out over a few servings you have something YUMMY....0 -

I recently made a turkey chilli with sweet potatoes and black beans in it that was delicious.
Also, Cooking Light's Meatloaf Muffins are a huge hit in our house as is taco soup.0 -
My favorite is Laarb...a Thai dish.
A traditional Thai dish, often eaten in butter lettuce cups. A blend of low-fat ground turkey seasoned with jalapenos, red onion, cilantro, fish sauce and fresh lime juice. Traditionally eaten cold, but I also enjoy it warm from the pan. Good for adding protein to your meal with a flavorful dish. Great for leftovers.
Ingredients:
Ground Turkey (93% lean)
Jalapenos (diced)
Red Onion (diced)
Cilantro (chopped)
Lime Juice
Fish Sauce
Brown 16 oz of Lean ground turkey in a pan (I add a little coconut oil). Add 2 diced jalapenos and red onion and continue to saute until japapeno is softened. While cooking, add 3-4T of fish sauce and 4-5T of fresh lime juice (1 whole lime squeezed). Remove from heat and add 1/2 -3/4 c cilantro. High protein and very flavorful meal.
Fish Sauce is high in sodium...you can test with reduced amounts to lower sodium content.0 -
I brown onion, garlic, in pam, add my ground turkey, bworn. After its all brown, (garlic and onion to taste, even bell pepper, I don't like bp. I add the peeled eggplant to the cooked ground turkey, add 4 or 5 peeled tomatoes, basil salt & pepper and cook until everything is cooked. you can put this over brown rice, rice, spaghetti, or plain. My family enjoys this very much.0

Bumping for ideas later. My husband and I love turkey chili!0

I use ground turkey in place of beef all the time...this is my family's favorite soup...mine too cuz it's low cal and soooo easy...
20 oz ground turkey browned
2 bags frozen mixed veggies (corn, carrots, beans, peas)
1 chopped onion
2 pounds cubed unpeeled red potatoes
1 lg jug low sodium V8 juice
1 small container (maybe 12 oz) chicken broth
A little garlic, red pepper, black pepper & whatever other spices sound fun
Throw it in the crockpot and cook till potatoes are done.
It's seriously under 100 calories per cup (85 if you keep the taters low) and 3 cups is a ton of food...this is pretty thick and chunky...makes about 4 quarts.0
