Ground Turkey Recipes?

Question

I am defrosting about 1.5 lbs of ground turkey right now so I can make dinner when I get home from class tonight.

I'm sick of my same ground turkey recipes, do you have any RECIPES? I'd love if they used pantry ingredients so I don't have to go to the store :)

Thank you!!

Answer 2

the thing I use ground turkey the most for is tacos. That probably doesn't help you because you probably make tacos already too. But I just use a taco seasoning packet and all the usual taco makings. You could try allrecipes.com. You can actually do a search based on ingredients and look for recipes with ground turkey. If you like burgers there are some good turkey mushroom burgers.

Answer 3

You know my hubby is the same. He is so negative about turkey that I couldn't even get him to consider trying it. So I got some anyway, and on spaghetti night I used it instead of the ground beef. I cook it then stir in the sauce and let it simmer. Well everyone loved it, in fact he told me it was the best spaghetti he had had in a while. Really I said to him, you liked it a lot did you. He said ya, it was great. Then I told him it was ground turkey. He was surprised, and I make the spaghetti with turkey now all the time. Just sneak it in, and don't tell. Then let them judge.

Answer 6

Use any sort of a ground beef recipe you have and replace the ground beef with the ground turkey. Here are 2 ideas ----

Southwestern Skillet Bake

1 pound lean ground beef
1 jar (16 ounces) Thick 'n Chunky salsa
1 can (11 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (6 ounces)
1 cup Original Bisquick® mix
3 eggs


1. Heat oven to 400ºF. Cook beef in 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. Stir in salsa and corn; heat over medium-high heat until hot.
2. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the cheese. Stir Bisquick mix, eggs and remaining cheese in medium bowl until blended. Spoon batter around edge of beef mixture, leaving center uncovered. Sprinkle with reserved cheese.
3. Bake uncovered about 20 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in topping comes out clean.

Substitution
Use Green Giant® Mexicorn® whole kernel corn with red and green peppers instead of plain corn to add even more of a Southwest twist to this skillet bake.

Substitution
Don’t have Cheddar cheese? Use the same amount of another cheese you have on hand.




Hamburger Stroganoff

1 to 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced (2 1/2 cups)

1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup Gold Medal® all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sour cream
3 cups hot cooked egg noodles


1. Cook mushrooms, onions and garlic in butter in 10-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are tender; remove from skillet.
2. Cook beef in same skillet until brown. Drain off grease. Stir in 1 cup of the broth, the salt and Worcestershire sauce. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 15 minutes.
3. Stir remaining 1/2 cup broth into flour; stir into beef mixture. Add onion mixture; heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in sour cream; heat until hot (do not boil). Serve over noodles.
