Seasoned Ground Turkey Base

In my previous post about the turkey enchiladas, I cooked up the ground turkey before rolling up the enchiladas.  I took that idea of pre-seasoning to creating a ground turkey base for a myriad of dishes, since I'm just cooking for 2, so we're not eating the same dish night after night.  It's a simple and time-saving step that I wished I thought of doing sooner.  All there is to it is browning the meat and adding some seasonings.  Salt is left out and added later in other dishes to avoid over-salting.  This could be used to make enchiladas, tacos, dirty rice, cupcake lasagna, spaghetti sauce, chili...whatever you can dream up.  Give this a try!

1 package ground turkey - about 1 lb
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp garlic powder
