I have some ground turkey in the refrigerator that I would like to use tonight, I was going to use it to make meatballs and spaghetti sauce but somehow I'm down to only one tomato (pretty rare in our house.) I'm pretty stocked up on other veggies though. I don't use ground meat often so if anyone has a recipe or dinner idea that they LOVE, please let me know

    Sautee onions and garlic, brown the meat then toss in chopped tomato and any other veggies you like. Add a few scrambled eggs and any spices you like as well as salt and pepper. It doesn't look pretty, but it generally tastes awesome. We call it "slop" and my kids LOVE it.

    my 'dinner' tonight is totally off the charts and likely to consist of champagne, canapes and other haphazard nibbly bits! Totally breaking the rules as we have a cocktail party to celebrate my mothers 70th birthday. If I had ground turkey though I'd be making something along the lines of a thai chicken larb which is pretty easy to adapt to paleo. Something like this: http://www.freshbitesdaily.com/thai-chicken-salad/

    Butternut squash "noodles" topped with sauteed power greens, ground bison and an egg fresh from the farm. Can't wait!!!

    We are having green thai curry chicken burgers from Well Fed 2. We eat a lot of ground meat because I have three insatiable boys and that is the cheapest responsibly pastured meat I can get!

    Anyway, maybe peruse paleomg, she has tons of great recipes. Turkey and chicken are pretty interchangeable IMO. We love the buffalo chicken meatloaf, basil meatloaf, turkey sliders, curry meatballs, meat crust quiche...I am sure there are others. Our favorite is breakfast lasagna which we, of course, eat for dinner! I make my own sausage from any of the ground meats and it works great.

    Tonite I had leek and goat cheese omelet fried in clarified butter. With a side of diced avocado and artichokes marinated in extra virgin olive oil. I know, goat cheese isn't paleo, please forgive me for eating dairy. :ohwell: :flowerforyou:

    I have ground turkey tonight too! I generally make a "Mexican Mash" - add onion and 1 tomato in the frying pan, some salsa (organic low sodium) and add cheese (I'm primal). I serve over cauliflower or on occasion real rice. kinda like a burrito without the wrapper.
