These new turkey items feature healthy nutrient profiles and are suitable for a wide range of menu applications.
Advance’s newest turkey items have been created to satisfy kids’ cravings without excess fat. Turkey Taco Filling and (All Meat) Turkey Crumbles are great on nachos and spaghetti. The new Canadian Bacon Style Diced Turkey and Mini Italian Style Turkey Meatballs top off pizzas, salads and many more menu applications with nutritious, low fat and delicious flavor. The A+™ Flamebroiled Turkey Pattie is a great alternative to the traditional burger. These and many more have been added to the existing line of turkey products made by Advance Food Company.
Consumers are looking for healthier ingredients, and that’s why Advance has developed healthy alternatives to standard fare. Not only is turkey a very good source of protein, it also contains selenium, niacin, vitamin B6 and the amino acid tryptophan. It's a good source of zinc and vitamin B12 too. No wonder schools and health institutions are serving more turkey. Turkey can be prepared numerous ways and served for breakfast, appetizers, lunch or dinner. Take a look at the New Product Announcements to learn more about Advance Food Company’s new Turkey product line.
A Few Quick Serving suggestions:
Use turkey crumbles instead of ground beef in Chili Con Carne recipes.
Say olé to Turkey Tostadas. Place cooked turkey pieces on a corn tortilla, sprinkle with shredded cheese and broil for a few minutes until hot. Top off with diced tomatoes and onion.
Hearty and chock-full of veggies, Shepherd’s Pie is delicious with ground turkey that is sautéed with onion, parsley, thyme, garlic and veggies, all layered in a whole wheat crust, topped with cheese and mashed red-skin potatoes.
