For medical reasons, I'm supposed to avoid red meat so ground beef is a no-no for me. I started substituting ground turkey for anything that most people would use ground beef for a few years ago. In recipes that have enough other flavors in them, I can't even tell the difference from what it tasted like when I used to eat beef. A couple of favorites (and ones you can't tell it's turkey not beef in) are tacos (meat cooked with a taco seasoning package from the grocery store) and lasagna. Ground turkey also makes a good substitute for beef in Hamburger Helper as well.
Pie:- Mince
(by Dune 6/1/09)
Family mince pie.
Ingredients (serves 4)
2 sheets frozen ready-rolled puff pastry, partially thawed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 brown onion, finely chopped
500g lean beef mince (any mince could be used)
1/4 cup oyster sauce
2 tablespoons reduced-salt soy sauce
3 cups frozen Asian mixed vegetables
1 egg, lightly beaten
Place a baking tray in the oven. Preheat oven and tray to 200掳C. Lightly grease a 17cm (base) pie dish and line with 1 pastry sheet. Trim excess pastry. Using a fork, prick pastry base 6 times (don't pierce all the way through). Place in freezer for 10 minutes.
Line pastry case with baking paper. Half fill with uncooked rice. Place on hot tray and bake blind for 10 minutes or until pastry edges are light golden. Remove paper and rice. Bake for a further 8 to 10 minutes or until pastry is light golden. Remove from oven. Allow to cool.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until soft. Increase heat to high. Add mince. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, for 5 minutes or until browned. Add oyster sauce, soy sauce and vegetables. Stir until well combined. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat. Simmer for 5 to 7 minutes or until liquid from vegetables has evaporated. Cool.
Spoon mixture into pastry case. Brush edges with egg. Place remaining pastry sheet over filling. Trim and seal edges. Brush top with beaten egg. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until pastry is crisp and golden. Stand for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes %26amp; tips
Variation: Rather than using Asian vegetables in your pie, you could add frozen mixed vegetables such as peas, carrots and corn. Or steam some vegetables from your fridge and add these instead.
Or use some green, red, yellow and orange capsicums.
Try using chicken mince, mixed with a drained can of corn and some carrot - kids love it.
You could also make in individual foil pie dishes, for snacks. They freeze well.
This is very yummy, and good for you too!

**I like to serve with a bit of light sour cream!
If you like, add beef bullion cubes to the milk and skip the liquid beef broth. Delicious with cooked pasta or as a meatball sandwich.

we use ground turkey in place of ground beef in everything. Spaghetti sauce. Even burgers.
use it to make sloppy joes, or even just burgers add some egg and crackers to make them stick together
