Answer 1

GROUND TURKEY ENCHILADAS

1 1/2 lbs ground turkey
1 pkg frozen spinach - thawed and drained
2 cups salsa
1 can diced tomatoes
1 pkg flour tortillas
2 cups Mexican blend cheese
1 8 oz. block cream cheese
ground cumin to taste

Cook ground turkey in skillet until no longer pink over medium heat. Add drained spinach and 1 cup of salsa to turkey and cumin to taste (about 1 tsp). Cook about 5 minutes until all liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and add cream cheese. Mix until melted.

Lay flour tortilla flat and place 1/3 cup mix, roll and place in greased 13x9 inch pan with flat side up. Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.

Remove from oven and top with 1 cup salsa mixed with can of diced tomatoes and additional cumin to taste. Top with cheese. Return to oven for 5 minutes until cheese is melted.

Serve with refried beans and mexican rice. Sour cream and guacamole are also great additions.

Answer 2

I would use ground chicken/turkey in just about any recipe you would make with ground beef. A few ideas:

Won Tons/Dumplings - Mix with ginger, finely diced green onions/scallions, minced garlic, soy sauce - Fill won ton wrappers and steam/boil. Serve as a main dish or add to soup.

Samosas

Stuffed Cabbage

Lasagna

Tacos

Turkey Burgers

Stuffed Peppers

Chicken loaf

Pizza

Calzone

Meatballs

Runza - Shredded cabbage, beef (or chicken/turkey), seasonings, wrapped up and baked in crescent rolls. Italian sausage and shredded cabbage would work here, as well.

Egg Rolls

Mu Shoo

Enchiladas

Biscuit cups - Pillsbury? has a recipe for biscuit dough in muffin tins, filled with cooked ground beef (you can use chicken or turkey), etc., bbq sauce, topped with shredded cheese.

Answer 3

you can use the same as ground beef-try lemon pepper seasoning if you have some, and make turkey steaks as you would hamburger steaks--really good flavor

Answer 5

It's great for "sloppy Toms". Also, for anything else using browned burger. It's not great at sticking together for burgers or meatloaf unless you use something to bind it.

Answer 6

Put in garbage can. then go out and get something with flavor:)
