| Thanks everyone for the great recipes. My own personal favorite is taking 1lb. ground turkey breast, 1 can low sodium black beans (drained and rinsed). Chopped Red and Orange peppers, 1 sweet onion. Final is brown or white rice. Season with Mrs. Dash, salt, pepper, and garlic. Brown the turkey meat, then add the onion until cooked down to your liking, then add the peppers. Add the beans last and put over rice it is delicious. Hope you like it. It makes a lot so you can have it for a few meals.

| I have used TURKEY instead of ground beef for all recipes, they come out great! Burgers,meatloaf,Lasagna,meatballs,chili,& anything that calls for ground beef replace with TURKEY.

the "FEATURE RECIPE' for today is Mexican Lasagna which calls for ground turkey.
Myself I will substitute the wheat tortilla's for the mission low carb ones. I still eat them even though I don't do atkins anymore.
I want to try it real soon.
I also "doctor" the ground turkey when making burgers - add chopped red onion,mushrooms s/p garlic . sometimes i use the Lipton onion soup mix with it. They are really good either way.
I need to look into making a pizza.

| I'm making a lasagna with ground turkey tomorrow night! Also, browned ground turkey crumbles are good on homemade pizza which can actually be good for you if you make it at home! I roll the crust out really thin so I can load lots of veggies on there, and use just a little bit of low fat mozzarella. Ground turkey is also good in place of chopped chicken or ground beef for Asian-style lettuce wraps (like at PF Chang's).

I cook some onions with ground turkey, then add black beans and corn, plus some cumin, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Then I serve it mixed with brown rice or Kashi 7-grain pilaf (which is chewier - I love it.) Top with low/non-fat sour cream or plain yogurt.
Oh, I also usually add some balsamic vinegar for a little bit of tang, and put some hot sauce on top.
We just call it "Taco mix." Extremely filling.
