If you’re a bit of a masterchef at home, try turkey in your recipes and make some fabulous new versions of classic dishes.
Where you’re thinking of chicken – go turkey. How about swapping turkey for your usual meat not only in family favourites – like spaghetti Bolognaise or Stir Fry – but in upscale gourmet dinners to impress your friends? How about Turkey Tikka Masala? Or Turkey Kebabs – Turkish-style? There are so many recipes for turkey that you can try, and lots of reasons to eat and serve more turkey – good value, great flavour, and amazing versatility.
Turkey recipes can also help towards a healthier balanced diet. Bernard Matthews Farms supports http://changeyourmeatnotyourmenu.co.uk/ a website that is packed with ideas and on how you can serve your family’s favourite recipes, but give them a healthier twist by simply substituting turkey for your usual meat choice. For example by using turkey mince instead of beef mince in spaghetti Bolognese or pasta Carbonara, you can reduce your saturated fat intake by up to two thirds, that’s 11g per average portion! It really is that easy.
And turkey breast meat is also high in protein and low in fat, which makes it the top option to give your family a more nutritious and balanced diet.
Bernard Matthews Farms turkey cooked meat products such as slices, wafer thin and chunks are also a healthier choice – typically under 3% fat – and are equally versatile in recipes for family favourites. Their website has loads of great recipe ideas and inspirations using their cooked meat products and there are even ideas for recipes using turkey leftovers.
Browse the recipe section of their website you’ll come away with some exciting new ideas.
