Stuffed peppers! I have a yummy recipe at home for a ground turkey, kale, and sweet potato soup.
I sub ground turkey for beef anywhere I can, my fave is definitely turkey burgers.0 -
We have Teriyaki Turkey Burgers once a week. I love them and so does my family. I buy the 20 oz. packages of ground turkey breast. I chop my onion and add all ingredients in a mixing bowl and just mix it all with my hands. I measure 4 oz for each burger and cook them on George Foreman, I love George. They are yummy. I have it added in my recipes so I can easily add it to my diary. The macros are for 4 oz, uncooked weight.
We normally have leftovers and I always crumble one up on a salad for the next night's dinner, while hubby and son have spaghetti or something else I don't like. :laugh:0 -
I love it in chili too! I also have made ground turkey meatballs.I make them with egg whites and whole wheat bread crumbs to try and up the health factor. I like these done quite mild and with a lot herbs like tarragon and sage. I just spray a cookie tray with a teeny bit of oil and bake them at about 375. I serve them with egg noodles or rice (I have a picky child) and some fresh veggies. Steamed asparagus for me and carrots for the kiddo.
ounds so yummy!0 -
I made chicken lettuce wraps and they tasted a lot like PFChang's. I found a seasoning packet at the grocery store with the asian food. My friend made it out of cookbook for South Beach. Sorry I can't find the recipe!0

Turkey bacon burgers with Epicure seasonings of your choice (low sodium) and sliced avocado on whole wheat bun. Sweet potato oven fries with sea salt on the side.
Turkey burgers are also really good with egg white, lemon dilly spice and italian breadcrumbs. Serve on a bun with mayo and lettuce and it tastes like a grilled chicken burger. Tasty!0 -

I've been making turkey burgers lately and they are YUMMY! I don't really have a recipe and they're always a little different, but these are the basics...
ground turkey
an egg
garlic (minced, or powdered, or fresh, whatever you have on hand)
chopped cilantro - lots!
sriracha - as much as you can handle
bread crumbs to bind
maybe a bit of chopped onion if you feel like it
I also like to toss in a handful of hemp hearts for all those great omega fats and added nutty flavour
press into patties and bbq (or roll into balls and fry if you want meat balls)
I love these burgers in half a whole wheat pita pocket with avocado and some mango chutney. I'm drooling just thinking about them!0 -
Ground turkey with a can of tomatoes, and some garlic, parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme (and cumin if you want, because cumin is always good). I can't help myself with that stuff. It's just so good. Cook it in the pan and just try getting it to another application (stuffed peppers). The song was totally right.0

Why don't you use 93% lean ground beef and alternate beef and turkey thats a way to give each meal a different flavor and not too much more fat.
Also a hamburger helper and use ground turkey works fine, just make sure its one of the better ones.0 -
Make Kheema Curry (INdian- usually uses ground lamb, but I follow this recipe ALL the time and use turkey!!) If you don't have the ingredients, visit an Indian Grocery nearby!! Great with bread
I make it spicier than the recipe calls for! Also, you don't have to use a pressure cooker, I just use a skillet with a lid.
Ingredients:
3/4 kg minced meat (kheema), washed and drained
3 large onions, finely chopped
2 tomatoes, finely chopped
1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
few curry leaves
4-5 green chillis, slit
½ tsp turmeric pwd
garam masala pwd (1cardamom pods, 2 cloves, 1/2″ cinnamon stick)
salt to taste
2 1/2 tbsps oil
coriander leaves for garnish
Dry roast for 3-4 mts and make a pwd:
1/2 tbsp coriander seeds
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
1/2 tsp poppy seeds
3 dry red chillis
pinch of methi/fenugreek/menthulu seeds
pinch of saunf/sompu/aniseed (optional)
1 Heat oil in a pressure cooker, add green chillis, curry leaves and chopped onions and saute till the onions turn transparent, approx 4 tms.
2 Add the ginger garlic paste and saute further for another 3 mts. Add the minced meat and turmeric pwd and cook on high without lid for 4-5 mts. Stir inbetween.
3 Add the ground masala pwd and salt and combine well. Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 3 mts on medium flame. Add a cup of water and place lid and cook on pressure upto 4 whistles or until the meat is almost cooked. Turn off heat. After 3-4 mts, remove lid, add garam masala pwd and coriander leaves. Again cook on low flame for 8-10 mts or till you get the desired gravy consistency.
4 Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with rotis or hot rice0 -

Thai Turkey Meatloaf. Found this recipe today and I can't wait to make it.
http://budgetbytes.blogspot.com/2012/06/thai-turkey-meatloaf-783-recipe-098.html
Servings Per Recipe: 8
Prep time: 20 min. Cook time: 60-75 min. Total: 1 hr. 35 min.
LOAF INGREDIENTS
2 lbs. ground turkey
4 cloves garlic
3-4 whole green onions
2 inches fresh ginger
3 Tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp toastes sesame oil
2 large eggs
1.5 cups cooked jasmine rice
GLAZE INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 Tbsp ketchup
2 Tbsp sriracha sauce
1 Tbsp rice vinegar
STEP 1: Place the ground turkey in a large bowl. Slice the green onions and mince the garlic. Add the onion and garlic to the bowl along with the soy sauce and sesame oil. Peel the ginger and grate it directly into the bowl using a fine cheese grater. Mix everything together well.
STEP 2: Add the eggs and cooked jasmine rice (white rice will work in a pinch). Mix everything together thoroughly. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick spray. Place the meat mixture onto the baking sheet and shape it into a loaf.
STEP 3: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Once preheated, place the loaf inside and bake for 30 minutes. While the loaf is baking, mix together the sriracha glaze. In a small bowl stir together the brown sugar, ketchup, sriracha, and rice vinegar.
STEP 4: After it has baked 30 minutes, remove the loaf from the oven and spoon half of the sriracha glaze over top. Bake for an additional 30 minutes. Spoon the remaining glaze over top and bake for a final 15 minutes. A meat thermometer placed in the center of the loaf should read 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
STEP 5: Allow the loaf to rest for ten minutes before slicing.
