Aubrey Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I use it anywhere I'd use ground beef--spaghetti, chili, whatever. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renthead Mommy Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Anything that would use ground beef. My husband can't eat beef. I used turkey or turkey/pork for everything. tacos chilie spaghetti meatballs meatloaf casserole/one dish meal type things lasagna sausage (I don't make it, but I buy turkey meat sausage) whatever you want. However I don't make burgers from it. I've tried, and to get them to stay together well enough, they've got so much egg and stuff in them, they are more like meatloaf patties than burgers. The frozen ones seem to work so much better. I think the heavy compression then freezing seems to make them work better as burgers. We used to use Jenni-o's at home, but ones out were always better. Recently we found Bubba turkey burgers and those are really good. I think it's Purdue that we also saw, but I like the Bubba's better.

chicagoshannon Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 We just use it for taco's, spaghetti, chili, and casseroles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicCole Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Anyway you would use ground beef. Sloppy Joes, Tacos, Taco Salad, Meatballs, chili, casseroles, soups, spaghetti, and burritos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angela in ohio Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I use ground turkey sausage in my Italian Wedding Soup for the meatballs. If you added a bit of spice, the plain ground turkey should work, too. You could probably also use it in place of chicken in white chili. You could make stuffed shells with it.

AuntieM Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I use it anywhere I'd use ground beef--spaghetti, chili, whatever. :001_smile: :iagree: if you want something to still taste "beefy" use half beef and half turkey, or add some dry beef buillion to the recipe.

Truscifi Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 :iagree:if you want something to still taste "beefy" use half beef and half turkey, or add some dry beef buillion to the recipe. :iagree: I do this. Dh doesn't like just ground turkey, so I use half and half. It is healthier and cheaper, and still tastes beefy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibraryLover Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Has anyone suggested Bolognese sauce, Sheperd's Pie, or Minestone Soup? Edited January 25, 2011 by LibraryLover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyFL Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 This was really different and very good from last year's Next Food Network Star, Aarti - Bombay Sloppy Joes (they include raisins and pistachios)... http://www.plantoeat.com/recipes/103517/9943jcq5grbcdv/bombay-sloppy-joes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jen in PA Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I use it anywhere I'd use ground beef--spaghetti, chili, whatever. :001_smile: :iagree: I also mix it with Penzey's sausage seasoning to make sausage patties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaffodilDreams Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Yes. What the others said. We use more ground turkey than beef. I really like using ground chicken better than either, but it's harder for me to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisy Mommy Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 You can always throw some cream of mushroom soup in there with some green beans and corn and top it off with cheese or breadcrumbs :001_smile: it's my emergency meal when I have to make something fast for dinner and there's a bunch of hungry carnivores...

Sahamamama Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 We don't like ground turkey for anything EXCEPT: Stuffed Bell Peppers (with rice/lentils/tomatoes + lots of seasonings) Chili (peppers, onions, beans + lots of seasonings) Especially the chili. That's about the only way I can stomach ground turkey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiseOwlKnits Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Just wanted to know what recipes do you guys have for ground turkey? Thanks, We don't eat beef so we use ground turkey for everything. Chili, burgers, spaghetti meatballs, meatloaf, burritos, etc., etc., etc. You can use it just the same, it's a lot healthier for you, and guests tell us they can't taste the difference after it's seasoned and cooked...
