Any good recipes for using Ground Turkey?

Question

Is it any better for you than ground beef, do I just use the same recipes?

Answer 1

Add some rice just enough to keep the meat together, make into meat balls, cover in mushroom soup, put it in the oven for an hour and when it is finished you have a gravy for mashed potatoes as well.

Answer 2

Yes, we just use Ground Turkey in recipes instead of Ground Beef.

You can just use it the same way and in the same recipes as ground beef. It is lower in fat and leaner so it is suppose to be better for you.

Answer 5

Yes, it is better for you. However, I've found that I cannot use the same recipes because the turkey does not mix like the hamburger. I tried making turkey burgers the way I make hamburgers, and they fell apart (same with meatloaf). I would go to www.foodnetwork.com and www.epicurious.com and look up some recipes specifically for turkey.

Answer 7

I like a good turkey burger as an occasional alternative to hamburger:

1) Mix a package of ground turkey in a bowl with tablespoon of worcestershire or soy sauce, black pepper, minced bell pepper & onion, parsley or other green herbs, raw egg, and breadcrumbs. Mixture should be moist & pasty, not dry & crumbly.

2) Form patties and pan-fry in a tablespoon of olive oil

3) Serve on toasted English muffins with melted pepper jack or other semi-soft cheese. Garnish with sliced tomatoe, skinless cucumber, or green leaf lettuce.

4) Eat it hot..

Yum!

Sometimes it's better for you, but regular dark meat ground turkey is usually the same amount of fat as red meat. If you buy ground WHITE meat from the breast, yes, it is much better for you.
