I'm in need of the same thing!
I'm thinking of switching up a recipe that I've made beofe with Italian Turkey Sausage and using just regular ground turkey and adding my own spices.
Browned Ground Turkey
Italian Seasonings & Crushed Red Pepper
Sliced Onion
Sliced Peppers (Green, Red, or Yellow)
Diced Tomatoes (canned, no salt added)
Tomato Sauce (no salt added)
Cook it all up in the pan and then top over Quinoa or any Rice/Potato you like.0 -
I have no idea how healthy it was, but the wife made some chili with ground turkey. Very tasty.0

Ground Turkey
Turkey Flavored Stuffing (One Box)
1/2 cup Chicken Stock
Mix together, even divide amoung 12 muffin tins at 350 for about 25 minutes.
Can't get much easier and yummier than that. It's my Junkfood addicted DH's favorite.0 -

Sloppy Joes (made with Turkey instead)
Stuffed Mushrooms
Turkey Burgers0 -
I put chopped up jalapenos and some light shredded cheese mixed in and then grill them like burgers. You can add egg white to hep it stick together. It is really good with or without a bun!0

Turkey Tacos! get a packet of low sodium taco mix your favorite healthy taco toppings (i like lettuce, tomatoes, a little cheese, maybe some salsa, whatever tickles your fancy). pretty simple to do0

Turkey ragu:
Boil your favorite whole wheat pasta, brown turkey in skillet, add a pint of grape tomatoes and some chopped garlic, cook till tomatoes burst then mix in pasta and top in bowl with feta cheese0 -
Turkey & Mixed Bean Chilli
Turkey Mince
Tin of Mixed Beans (Red Kidney, Chickpeas, Cannellini Beans, etc.)
Salsa
Chillies
Whatever else you might often add to a chilli, I often include diced onion, garlic and possibly mushroom.
Usually eat a small bowl with warmed wholemeal pita bread.0 -
I have THE BEST recipe for you for ground turkey (well, in my opinion); it's a pizza and it's completely free of sugar and flour, and it's to die for!!!
The crust is where you'll find the ground turkey; here is the recipe for the crust and you can top it however you'd like. Enjoy I'll try to post a pic of the one I made, too.
1/4 cup old fashioned oats
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp ground flaxseed
4 oz ground lean turkey
The turkey gets mixed in UNCOOKED (that's what makes it gooey).
Bake the crust alone for 5 minutes each side at 350 degrees
Top it and bake an additional 10-15 min
I used fat free cottage cheese and a little feta as my cheese...0 -
I make a meatloaf with Ground turkey... I also add yellow peppers and onions to it...
Its SOOOOOO good!!!!!0 -
I make my chili with ground turkey also. I find it to be just as tasty, and I figure its healthier, since the only ingredients I add after then contain no fat.0

-
I like to make lettuce wraps along with most everything else I read on this page.0
-
Stuffed turkey peppers. Top with a low-sodium ragu and some cheese.0
