Is this recipe still good using ground turkey? I know I’ve substituted some recipes using ground turkey and it didn’t taste well. If not, any alternatives to this recipe?
I would use more pepper — but it works
I havn’t bought “real” ground beef in years. Ground turkey is so much more inexpensive. The pnly thing I use ground beef for is 1/2 and 1/2 for meatloaf.
I would totally add bacon as well!!
We make something really similar and it’s a household fave.
