Turkey is an integral part of holiday meals but turkey is for everyday. Included are recipes using roast turkey and ground turkey. I have included recipes for main dishes, homestyle savory pies, casseroles, soups, salads and sandwiches. Turkey is affordable and much lower in fat and calories than red meat. When recipes call for ground turkey, use ground turkey breast for less fat. It is so easy to grind turkey to make your own ground turkey. When turkeys are on sale at the holidays, I buy several to make ground turkey. Cut the turkey into manageable pieces and debone the turkey with a sharp knife. Grind the turkey in a food grinder or food processor. I package the ground turkey in 1 lb. increments and freeze up to 4 months in a heavy duty Ziploc bag.
