Little Thai Turkey Loaves

"These are lucious little loaves cooked in a muffin tin. You can chop the scallions, cilantro, lemongrass and garlic together in a food processor to save time. This recipe needs no salt or pepper. You can buy Thai Peanut Sauce already made, but I've included a recipe in case you like making your own. Judge the hot pepper by your own tastes."

  1. Amazing meal. It's getting 5 stars for flavor and overall reception from my enthusiastic family, but 4 stars for two reasons. First, the lemon grass was really hard to chop up fine enough to make it truly edible. I think that I'll have to get a food processor and try to manage that way. Second, there was too much moisture in the meat mixture to get it to hold together nicely. Next time, I'll decrease the coconut milk or increase the meat amount. Overall, I'm still giving it 5 stars because the peanut sauce was wonderful and we'll make that often. Cool Monday, cool recipe. Thanks!

I know that because they told me so... hehehe...I live in the eternal city of lights, Las Vegas, Nevada. I stopped working about 3 years ago when I had some personal situations requiring my attention. I do love pizza, especially cold for breakfast the next day.. Since I discovered Zaar, I now prepare a large family meal once a month and I enjoy saving recipes and passing them on to my daughter. Most of the dishes are from Recipezaar.. so thank you very much. I have a good housekeeping cookbook that's about 40 years old and I love it... I have recipes I have saved over the years and have posted some of them. My pet peeve???? hmmmm that would have to be rude or inconsiderate people. Another pet peeve is people who "tell it like it is".
