Could you ask Mrs Shottlebop how she seasons the ground turkey you have listed for your dinner?  I like ground turkey, as does my husband, but mine frequently seems a bit bland.

I'll ask my son, who is usually the ground turkey/bell pepper/onion cook.  I know it often includes flaked red pepper.

Flaked red pepper and Montreal Chicken Seasoning.

Flaked red pepper and Montreal Chicken Seasoning.

Thank you.  I have put both items on my grocery list.  It sounds like it gives the ground turkey a good flavor.

Thank you for the invitation!  I will think about doing that, once work settles down a little.

Is it possible for you to do this now ?
