How people cook with it
Ground turkey is a popular choice for many home cooks due to its mild flavor and lean profile. It can be seasoned and shaped in numerous ways.
- Sautéed for tacos

- Used in casseroles
To cook, simply remove the ground turkey from its packaging. You can brown it in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain off any excess fat if desired. The natural flavoring is already incorporated, so you can add your own seasonings and spices to complement the dish you are preparing. It cooks relatively quickly, making it suitable for weeknight meals. Ensure it is cooked thoroughly until no pink remains.
