How to Pick Ground Turkey

When choosing ground turkey at the grocery store, consider the lean-to-fat ratio. This recipe calls for 93% lean 7% fat. Also consider freshness; raw ground turkey should be light pink or beige, but its color will dull over time. If the meat is brown, gray, green, or moldy, it’s best to throw it away.
