MEXICAN-STYLE TURKEY CHORIZO
This super-flavorful lighter version of Mexican chorizo is made with lean ground turkey instead of pork. Form into burger patties, stuff inside sausage casings, use as taco meat, or fry some up with eggs! This is what I use to make my Chorizo-Stuffed Spaghetti Squash recipe, also found on this site. The possibilities are endless!

EASY CHORIZO STUFFING
Kick your up stuffing another notch by adding Mexican chorizo. To make it easy, I used prepackaged chorizo found in the refrigerated section of all markets.
