i make Tacos with it!
Chop Onions, Garlic and fry with ground turkey ( after frying/draining turkey fat)
Add Cumin , Black Pepper, Salt ( or your favorite Taco Seasoning)
Add Tomato sauce and a little water to soften it all up and cover it to simmer for 15-20 mins on Med Low
Taste for salt or more cumin if needed. Make Tacos!

Turkey burgers
1lb ground turkey
1 egg
1/2 tsp cumin
1 tbsp BBQ sauce
1/2 tsp pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 medium onion, grated
1/2 c oats ( or bread crumbs)
Mix all ingredient together, may need a little extra oats or bread crumbs if mixture it too liquid to form burgers. Form into patties ( should make about 6). If grilling on BBQ, put on tin foil. Can also fry in a bit of oil or grill on George foreman.0 -

This week I found some nice large poblano peppers. For the mix to stuff them with I used ground turkey, a little vigo italian bread crumbs with romano cheese, a little light cream cheese, and some pico de gallo and roasted it through. It was fabulous! If a person were making several at a time, you might put an egg in the the stuffing mix.0

Stuffed Peppers
Brown turkey with onions (I seasoned with a spicy cajun seasoning)
mix with 1 cup cooked brown rice, and 1/4 +/- can of tomato sauce (you want it to be moist but not soupy)
Cut top off 4 bell pepper and clean out inside.
Stuff peppers with filling and place in crockpot, pour remaining tomato sauce over the top and cook on low for approx 4-6 hours.0 -
These "burgers" are quite tasty. My wife and I make them often, but we do not make sandwiches out of them. Instead, we serve them on a bed of lettuce.
I put mandarin orange slices around the burger, and dress them with a few tablespoons of Ken's Asian Sesame with Ginger & Soy. I will sometimes top with a few La Choy Chow Mein Noodles.
My wife prefers to use tomatoes instead of mandarins, but does use the Ken's dressing....0 -

- 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1/4 cup water

Steamed Egg with Ground Turkey:
Serves 4 VERY comfortably
8 oz 93/7 lean ground turkey
2 eggs
One-eighth cup Tiparos fish sauce
1 tbsp pure dark sesame oil
1 tsp ground white pepper
- Beat eggs with fish sauce, sesame oil and pepper in a mixing bowl.
- Crumble in lean ground turkey. Blend everything together by hand.
- Put egg and turkey mixture into a glass pie plate.
- Place pie plate in a bamboo steamer and set steamer in a wok or pot filled with water that reaches the bottom edge of steamer.
- Steam on medium heat for 20-25 minutes, or until meat/egg is no longer pink in the center.
- Be sure to regularly check on the water level in the wok or pot. Don't let the water evaporate; add more water when necessary.
Serve with steamed vegetables and cooked quinoa/rice blend (I use a 60/40 ratio for the quinoa and rice blend).
