Awhile back I started buying ground turkey in place of ground beef. Not only is it healthier, it’s cheaper. It didn’t take us long to adjust to the difference. I use it for tacos, “beef” stroganoff and more. I was excited to find out that JENNIE-O has just launched a new line of turkey appetizers that are perfect for football season: the Nacho Platter, Nachos Extreme, Chili & Cheddar Dip and Buffalo Dip and the offered me the opportunity to try them. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. Seasoned meat it a bag doesn’t look appetizing at all. It was a little strange plopping the turkey out of the bag and breaking it up with a fork before heating the nachos. It sort of looked like canned dog food. Once it was heated up with the cheese they looked like regular nachos and the flavor was great!
The Chili & Cheddar Dip I actually heated up and served for lunch with some Fritos. My 4 year old and 2 year old actually liked it. So did my one year old! In fact, my oldest actually asked to have it for dinner the same day and he’s the pickiest one of the bunch. I joined them and again was quite surprised by how good it was.
These Jennie-O Turkey appetizers are healthier than their traditional counterparts. If you can get over the appearance of meat in a bag and give it a shot, chance are, you’ll like these products — I did! I’d definitely buy them again, especially with a sale/coupon!
(Update: My son must have REALLY loved the Chili dip because as I was putting him to bed tonight he was asking if there was any left and if we could get some more!)
