I love turkey burgers! I like them a bit more than beef or venison, in fact.
What’s wrong with the stems? Nothing, I say. Had some for lunch today.
tony chachers is good stuff!
Scott Anderson I agree. But some people only eat the tips or the more tender part of the stems. If you steam them correctly and just trim off the woody ends (which are quite small) they cook nicely. Most people also probably don’t know the best way to store asparagus until you eat it, is in a glass with water, like they were flowers. They don’t dry out that way, and won’t get slimy since they’re not in plastic bags
I have to change my diet, doctors orders, that sounds pretty good thanks for the idea
I usually get whatever ground turkey is on sale, but some of it is nasty. This kind was Honeysuckle White brand and it was 93% lean and all white meat. Full disclosure, I also enjoy the Jennie-O patties in the single serving frozen (raw) packets at Dollar Tree! Sometimes it’s cheaper to get 6 of them at a time vs the 32 oz pack in the freezer section at my grocery or Target! Same product, but individually sealed is nice.
thanks, I like the idea of quality lean turkey instead of the stuff I bought at save a lot, going to get some of the good stuff and try it in burgers the cheap stuff was awful.
The lean stuff is good, you can always add fat! I cook mine in butter or bacon grease most of the time, but using a little coconut oil or avocado oil is good too.
