One of the ways I have found to save a lot of money is to buy ground turkey. Now, I know that there are some tried and true blue ground beef eaters out there. I was one of them. I still am at times. However, when heading out to the store, I find that the price of ground beef is jus too high most of the time anymore.

Ground turkey is a wonderful substitute for ground beef in so many recipes. We use it in spaghetti, casseroles, slow cooker meals and so many other things. The taste is not that different and it is so much cheaper that we decided that if the ground beef was not under a dollar a pound, we would buy the ground turkey instead. For years, I was paying almost $1 a pound for ground turkey. Then I found the ALDI’S store in Missouri, just north of where we live about 50 miles. That is not a long way to go to save so much money.

The current price of ground beef around here goes anywhere from about $1.19 a pound to well over $1.79 a pound. That is far too much to pay for ground beef. It’s HAMBURGER, for crying out loud. So, we get our ground turkey at that store and save money. The turkey is currently at 89 cents a pound. We have paid as little as 59 cents a pound at times.

So, try something new. Get the ground turkey and give it a try in some of those dishes that were using beef. You might just be surprised to see that it does not matter so much about the beef and you will save a whole lot of money in the process.

Happy Shopping!!
