We've been trying to SLOWLY switch from hamburger meat to ground turkey meat! There are several nutritional reasons, I'm sure (I won't bore you or myself with a bunch of links), but for us its purely financial. At Aldi's it's $1.79 per pound where hamburger meat is $2.79 per pound. The Hubster made spaghetti with turkey meat and chunky marinara for dinner this evening. It was very good!! A little parmesan and a touch of black pepper and I was in heaven. We've tried in the past to make hamburger patties with ground
turkey meat, breakfast burritos and stroganoff, it just wasn't the same! I can't quite go there yet. Since spaghetti gets made in our house at least three times per month, using 1lb per batch, we save $3 per month. The turkey meat doesn't seem to shrivel as much as the hamburger meat, so there are more generous leftovers the next day.
