Grilled Pineapple and Pesto Turkey Burgers

I saw this Grilled Pineapple and Pesto Turkey Burgers recipe in the coupon section of the newspaper. It's from Dole and I have to say, it's really good! I will make this again.

Turkey Devonshire Sandwich

The Turkey Devonshire Sandwich, sometimes simply called a Devonshire, originated in the 1930s in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. It is typically served as a hot open faced sandwich on toasted bread with hot turkey, bacon, tomatoes, and a cheese sauce. It was created by Frank Blandi (1907-1999), who first served them at The Stratford Club in Pittsburgh's Shadyside neighborhood.

Chow Mein Burgers

Chow Mein Burgers is a family favorite. My mother-in-law got the recipe in the early ‘80s from a Weight Watchers cookbook. It’s a turkey burger that you serve without a bun. They are low-fat and crunchy. I love anything crunchy! You can serve them with rice and sugar snap or snow peas (more crunch!) This is a must-try!

Turkey Swiss Sauerkraut Braid

One of my favorite recipes is Garlic Artichoke Braid. Here is another take on the same idea. This time using German ingredients.

Tamale Pie

This Tamale Pie takes less then 5 minutes to throw it in a casserole dish! The Trader Joe's "tasting station" is a place for some culinary inspiration. It's where they hand out samples for you to try. I almost always buy whatever they are demoing. It was this tamale pie. I am not a big fan of polenta (unless it's crispy), but I have to say I really liked this dish. It's something you could have in your pantry. You could even make it vegetarian by using vegetarian chili instead of chicken or turkey. The original recipe calls for a jar of their Cowboy Caviar, but I actually used the corn salsa instead.

Sloppy Bombay Joes

A friend of mine told me about Aarti Sequeira's sloppy joe recipe. It's a sloppy joe with an Indian twist. I consider myself a sloppy joe expert, given that I have made them for hundreds of school children for almost 16 years. These are really delicious and different and actually a bit healthier using ground turkey. I served them with Broccoli Slaw. You've really to try these!

Pasta with Mushrooms & Turkey Sausage

Pasta with Mushrooms & Turkey Sausage

This Pasta with Mushrooms & Turkey Sausage is a great weeknight pasta dish to feed your family. Of course, this would exclude my daughter who only eats pasta with butter and Parmesan. It's her loss!
