I found that purchasing ground turkey could be cheaper that ground beef but you have to watch your local grocery store ads to get the cheaper price.
My local Kroger (Smith’s) grocery store ran a great special on ground turkey about a month ago and I was able to stock up for a fraction of the price I would normally pay.
Beside ground turkey you can also purchase frozen turkey patties. These are a great last minute dinner ideas you can pull from the freezer and throw on the George Foreman Grill. Frozen turkey patties are also cheaper than frozen ground beef patties and my kids love to eat them.
