I use ground turkey all the time. Like turkey and chicken best, sometimes needs a little extra oil however.

Top 10 recipe in my arsenal, whole family enjoys and my coworkers literally (it’s funny) drool when I bring in leftovers. I’ve honestly never had something with such a savory-sweet, complex flavor. Typically I leave out the cayenne and bell pepper and halve the cumin when my mother’s eating, as she’s allergic to peppers. Still tastes excellent. I have also developed a vegan/vegetarian version for a Hindu in-law: replace meat with 1 can/0.5 dry cup lentils and 1 can/0.5 dry cup black eyed peas and add 1-2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Adjust water and filling cook time so legumes are al dente before baking. Gets the textures, mouthfeel, and umami flavor right without meat. Cannot thank you enough for publishing this recipe, truly.

I haven’t tried it, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. With all the spiciness, you may not even notice the difference. Please let me know how it goes.
