I am looking for ground turkey or chicken ideas that kids like because so far since trying to use them more instead of beef over the past couple months the only thing they don't complain about is spaghetti and to be honest I didn't care for it too much as meatloaf..I made it the same old way as you would with beef. Any suggestions??

    We like turkey joes, we do turkey taco salad (cooked with black beans and a bit of salsa), turkey quesadillas ( I use my left over chili), and meatball subs. Interested to see what others have to offer!

    Yeah, they didn't like it in the sloppy Joe's...I don't think anyone had minded it in the chili though.

    I make chili and replace the ground beef with 97% lean ground turkey. It tastes exactly the same! The next day, if we have any leftovers, I add some pasta for chili mac. We love it!

    I found this recipe for turkey meatballs on Pinterest. The family liked them and they were not dry at all. They freeze well, too.
