Re: What to do with ground turkey
Simplest: We've made it into patties using a packet of dry ranch seasoning for flavor.
Reasonably easy: White bean chili, using cans of whatever white beans are available, cans of diced green chilies, white pepper, and cumin. Can add carrots and corn for veggies, or even diced tomatoes if you want.
Favorite special recipe: Thanksgiving pot pie...brown turkey with diced onions and salt. Probably celery, too. Add diced granny smith apples and diced raw sweet potatoes and pour into a regular pie crust. Top with a second crust. Bake. Ends up crumbly because there's no sauce, but it was delicious. The sweet potatoes, apples, and onions added just enough sweetness to compliment the salted turkey, while not being too sweet because Granny Smith and no sugar.
If the turkey burgers are too dry, I've had kids add applesauce to top their patties the way some people eat pork chops. Some people mix it with other meats for fat, like ground pork.
You can also make taco meat out of it. Or use it with a box of hamburger helper. Or add to tomato sauce over spaghetti. Or make chicken soup with it.
