5 Easy Ground Turkey Recipes

Published about 8 hours ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader!

We always have a pound or two of ground turkey stashed in our freezer. It defrosts quickly and can be turned into soups, casseroles and other dishes without too much effort.

Here are a few of our favorite meals to give you some ideas for the week ahead.

  1. ​Southwestern Turkey Rice Casserole - Reader review: "This is quite literally one of my favorite recipes - I LOVE it SO much. I double it, so I cook and bake it in my *huge* skillet." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
  2. Homemade Turkey Breakfast Sausage - These beat any store-bought brands by a mile! Serve with eggs and sautéed veggies. We love serving breakfast for dinner.
  3. ​Pesto Turkey Tortellini Soup - Reader review: "I love this recipe! It is definitely in my healthy dinner rotation. I like to throw in some sliced mushrooms occasionally." 😍
  4. ​Red Curry with Ground Turkey - This meal comes together SO quickly. Serve it over rice.
  5. ​Greek Turkey, Rice & Feta Casserole - A family favorite! We make this one over and over again, and never get tired of it.
    ​

See you next time!
