    Tacos, meatballs, meatloaf, spaghetti sauce, chili, I like it in things that have lots of low cal added flavor

    I was going to say the same thing! Scramble cook it, drain if needed, add some chili powder and some salsa and PRESTO! Put it on top of greens and veggies (peppers, corn, beans...) and a few multigrain chips, OM NOM. Love it.

    I make buffalo chicken burgers with it. I finely dice onions and celery, mix that with one egg, about 1/4 c of panko breadcrumbs (to keep it together), 1 lb ground chicken, and Frank's buffalo wing sauce to taste. Cook 'em up, top with a bit of crumbled blue cheese and lettuce, more hot sauce if desired... (edited to add: salt & pepper to taste)

    NOMS.

    Love ground chicken! I use it for enchiladas, chili, burgers, meatballs, taco's. Just think of how you use ground beef and do the same thing

    I used ground turkey last week to make a stir-fry - I'm sure you could easily use ground chicken, too! Sauteed ground meat w/ a little bit of oil, mixed in some tofu, stir-fry sauce from Trader Joe's, veggies, and voila!

    I make spaghetti sauce with ground chicken. I usually start with a jarred sauce and add the chicken, sauteed onions and petite diced tomatoes. My kids actually prefer this to a sauce made with beef or italian sausage.

    chicken pot pie. chicken stew. stuff it in a veggie like eggplant or bell pepper. makes marinara sauce...it's pretty versatile.
