Recipe(tried): Linda, I also regularly use ground turkey. I grind it myself...

Tips and Tricks - Cooking
I tell everyone who will listen how to do this, because it is so easy, comes out so well, and I CANNOT believe what they charge in the store for ground turkey/chicken breast or thighs or otherwise.

I buy the breasts when they are on sale. If they are bone-in, I cut the meat off the bone, and use the bones for stock. Into the slow cooker they go, along with any less-than-beautiful veggies in my crisper (go easy on the cabbage). The stock freezes beautifully, and is handy for soup of any description, or to give a boost to rice dishes.

Take the boneless breast or thigh, whichever you prefer, and cut it into chunks. Big ones, bigger than bite size. Use the knife blade in your food processor, and do about 4 one-second pulses. Done!

I package it up in 1 lb packages and flat pack them in my freezer. I use it for pasta sauce, burritos, meatballs wherever you might use regular ground beef.

I have not yet made a meatloaf or burger I liked. Mine seem to come out too "cat-foody". Nothing against cats; just don't want to eat their food :-)!!

Good luck, hope this helps,

Carolyn!
