Yum can’t beat a good Lasagne!
Oh Yum! Defintely going to give this a whirl, can’t wait in fact! Thanks
I cook with Turkey a fair bit… My local woolies stocks Turkey mince, steaks and breast, wings, legs, roasts (thigh and breast) and Iove it! I’ve made lasagne, bolognse, roasts, burgers, meatballs, rissoles etc… Just like chicken! Only thing is I’ve noticed is that Turkey bolognse can sometimes be a little dry… Love a turkey stir fry and breast in salads!
I’ve still yet to try roasting a whole turkey!
Your lasagne looks delish!
It seems really lean and healthy too. x
I never think to cook with Turkey. I only ever associate it with Xmas. After seeing this recipe though, I think i’ll give it a try as I’m a sucker for any type of lasagne 🙂
Isn’t lasagne the ultimate comfort food?
Oh yum! I’ve made pumpkin lasagne before (with no meat) which was delicious, but I think I’ll have to try your turkey and pumpkin combination now!
Oh that sounds yummy.
I love the sound of Turkey Lasagne! Especially because Turkey helps you to sleep better at night (cant remember what its in it, but there is something that naturally helps you get to sleep and stay sleeping longer!)
We dont have an oven as such, but when we do have access to one, i am going to try this recipe 🙂
Oh, Lacey did sleep rather well after eating it. 😛
It’s funny to me, as an American, that for you turkey falls into the same category as crocodile, and kangaroo! Here in the US it is totally common and normal to eat turkey–it’s even the star of our holiday meals (Thanksgiving and Christmas). My favorite meal at the cafe across the street from my apartment is actually the turkey burger (topped with chevre, caramelized onions, butter lettuce, and avocado all on a fresh brioche bun–YUM).
It’s definitely not as out there as crocodile, but our main meats are beef, lamb, chicken and fish. We have it more on sandwiches, I guess.
We both posted Lasagna recipes yesterday!! 😉 I have to say Chantelle … I can’t wait to try your lasagna with pumpkin!!
Great minds think alike!
i never much paid attention to the absence of turkey in common Australian cooking (and supermarkets..) but used to consider it sort of ‘inferior’ to chicken in taste. not to mention duck or goose.. my mother in law still cooks it for xmas.. mmmh.. Turkey was a lot cheaper in Europe though, and sometimes a lighter alternative to other meat. great to see they have mince and all, straight out of the fridge, will check that out.
We don’t eat red meat in our house – well I don’t and as I cook, “we” don’t. I do do a great turkey meatballs in the slow cooker. Fennel seeds is my secret.
Oh, that sounds yummo!
Yum! This looks delish! I actually made turkey burgers the other week (using your brioche burger buns actually!!!) and they were awesome! I’d never cooked with turkey before and it was a lot less dry than chicken mince. Really fab! We had them topped with marinated feta and cranberry sauce and served sweet potato fries on the side. So good!!! Turkey and pumpkin/sweet potato go so well together. I’m definitely going to try this lasagne – Yum!
I think I will keep my eye out for some Turkey Mince. The lasagna sounds deliciou but I actually want to try the burgers Amy (The Misadventurous Maker) was talking about below. Yummo
That sounds like a delicious combo! Turkey and pumpkin……perfect for fall time! Thanks for sharing this with us!
Made this tonight and it was lovely, I cook with a bit of turkey mince and this was a nice change, I gave it 10/10! Thanks for sharing the receipe!!

You’re thinking of tryptophan, but there isn’t more of that in turkey than in other protein sources. The “turkey makes you sleepy” thing is a common myth.
