Ground Turkey Recipe - Chili

2 cans of drained diced tomatoes


1 cup water


5 teaspoons chili powder


2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce


salt and pepper to taste


陆 teaspoon garlic powder


录 teaspoon allspice


录 teaspoon red pepper





Brown turkey and onions. Add the remaining ingredients and stir. Simmer for 45 minutes or until chili has begun to thicken.
try your favorite Lasagna recipe or stroganoff, vegetable soup, tacos... you can use it in anything that you would use hamburger for.
Mix the ground meat with the same ingredients you would use for meatloaf. Lay half the meat on a cookie sheet. Saute some fresh spinach with diced tomato and onion until just softened. When it's cooled, place that on top of the turkey on the cookie sheet. Add cheese of your choice, cover with the rest of the meat. Top with ketchup or a cream soup (like cream of mushroom) bake until meat is cooked thoroughly. Stuffed meat loaf.
The less fat in the ground turkey, the greater the chance you will need to add oil to make it act like ground beef in a recipe.
tacos, burritos etc. i also make meat sauce for spag
I have one that is called pronto pizza which is:


1 lb ground turkey


1/2 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs


1/2 cup diced green bell pepper


1/4 cup finely chopped onion


1 pressed garlic clove


1 egg white


1 8 oz can pizza sauce, divided


1/2 cup shredded reduced fat mozzarella


6 slices French or Italian bread, cut 1/2 inch thick


2 teaspoons olive oil


1 teaspoon Italian seasoning mix





* combine turkey, bread crumbs, bell pepper, onion, garlic, egg white, and 1/4 cup of pizza sauce; mix lightly but thoroughly.


* form mixture into oval patties, 1/2 inch thick and cook 12-14 minutes or until meat is no longer pink in center turning once.


* About 1 minute before patties are done top with cheese. remove but keep warm.


*whip skillet clean with paper towel. Brush one side of ech bread slice with olive oil; sprinkle with seasoning mix. Heat skillet over medium until hot. Place seasoned side down and Toast bread 1/2 minutes until lightly browned.


* Place patties on bread slices and top with remaining pizza sauce.





You can also use ground turkey in tacos, chili, or anything that calls for ground beef.


If you don't like the idea of turkey instead of beef use only in recipes that have alot of flavor and seasonings so that you cannot tell it is turkey and good for you - also a good way to get kids to eat healthier without them knowing it.
My favorite is to use it for tacos or spaghetti. With tacos, I season with cumin, turmeric, some Rotel, and red pepper flakes. Turns out much better than the prepackaged seasonings.





If you want spaghetti, season with oregano, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Add some tomato sauce and diced tomatoes.
