In my ongoing effort to feed Ace a variety of healthy foods, I decided to buy him ground turkey. Healthy, right? What I found was really interesting. Ground turkey can be just as high in fat as ground beef. You have to look for ground turkey BREAST. It is much whiter that regular ground turkey. Apparently, regular ground turkey also contains dark meat and the skin! I have several simple ways to prepare this. One of Ace's favorites is turkey, sauce, and some mozarella chesse. I also make little meatballs that he can pick up and eat. Yes, they take a while since they are child bite sized, but they are soooo cute and he loves them.

So, take a closer look at what you think you are buying and make sure it really is what you want!
