You can use it for just about anything you would use ground beef for. If
you are using it for a diet or something beware. Ground turkey can have as
much, if not more, fat and calories as ground beef. Check out the
nutritional information on it before using it for dietary reasons. I've
never been real fond of ground turkey myself but I have not used it very
much.

Ground Turkey Parmesan

We switched to ground turkey when the BSE thing hit too close to home.
At first the switch was a little weird - now we both love ground turkey
and probably will never go back. I have fed it to numerous guests in
pasta sauce and they always remark about how good it is but don't know
it is turkey until I tell them. I also won a chili contest once with
ground turkey. 🙂

Anything I use ground beef or pork for.
It's quite versatile and flavorful.

Everything i used to use ground beef for, meat loaf with an admixture of
a local porc sausage is good. I occasionally make a moussaka with it.
Stuffed peppers or onions, taking a cue from a local faux English pub i
make a burger with it and serve it on artichoke bread i get from the
pub, folding into the meat a walnut sized piece of blue cheese. Stir fy
with veggies and serve over rice, maranara sauce for pasta with turkey
meat balls. I find adding about 1/4 of a pound of oat bran to 1 pound
of ground turkey to be very tasty, especially when making Swedish
meatballs.

I'll give this a go. Never used ground turkey before. Two simple queries on
this though, Jill.

1. What is "poultry seasoning"? - obviously a mix of dried herbs, but which?
2. "Italian breadcrumbs"? Specially flown in from Italy ;-) Which bread?

Thanks
