Recipes Using Ground Meat

Ground beef, ground turkey, or ground chicken can be easily swapped out in any recipe! Here are some healthy recipes using ground meat.

If you're looking for recipes using meat that is not ground, you might want to take a look at these categories:

  • Beef and Pork Recipes
  • Chicken and Poultry Recipes

Swapping ground meats requires no other recipe changes. If using ground beef, you might want to drain the grease from the meat after it cooks and before you add it to a recipe, but it's not completely necessary if your ground beef is very lean.

You can also substitute ground game meat for any other ground meat recipe. Ground elk and ground venison are very popular and lean, and they make for an easy ground meat swap in a recipe.
