Ground turkey is a versatile protein made from finely chopped turkey meat, often combining white and dark cuts for a balanced flavor and texture. It’s a staple in many cuisines, particularly in American, Mediterranean, and Asian dishes, due to its ability to absorb flavors and adapt to various recipes. Lean ground turkey is low in fat and high in protein, making it a popular choice for those seeking a healthier alternative to ground beef. It’s also rich in essential nutrients like vitamin B6, niacin, phosphorus, and selenium, supporting energy metabolism and immune health. However, fat content can vary depending on the blend, so leaner options are recommended for those watching fat intake. Be mindful of sodium if using store-bought flavored or pre-seasoned varieties. Ground turkey shines in meal staples like burgers, meatballs, tacos, and soups, offering both taste and nutrition.
