many people are like my mom who refuse to try something called

MorningStar Farms® Meal Starters® Grillers® Recipe Crumbles™

especially when the package says meat free.

here is a little trick i use to help out with cooking.

one pack = one lbs of uncooked ground beef.

i mix one lbs of lean ground turkey and one bag of crumbles.

makes a lot but the rest saved can be added to other dishes another day.

my mother has now stopped turning her nose up at trying a dish i made with it.

she is actually taking some of my cabbage to work with her for lunch tomorrow.

and the mixture i used in it was left from tacos last night.

you can mix it with ground beef as well.

a serving size of the crumbles is 2/3 cup

that has 80 calories2.5 grams of fat

saturated fat and trans fat 0

carbs 5

and protein 10

mixed with

Honeysuckle White

4 servings in a 1 lbs pack

calories 130

carbs 0

fat 7.5

protein 135

like for our tacos the serving size was a lot less.

so less guilt i feel eating it.

but even if u eat the serving size your 130 calories from the turkey turns into 105

a 25 calorie difference.
