MAKE IT YOUR OWN
- Potatoes can be cooked in the microwave to save time. Poke potatoes all over with a fork, and microwave for 5 minutes. Using heat protection, flip the potatoes and cook five more minutes until tender. Allow to cool for a few minutes before handling to mash them. Try this recipe with sweet potatoes as your topping!
- Ground chicken may be substituted for turkey. If you don't have lean ground poultry on hand, lean ground beef is also an option.
