Change your meat not your menu. It really is that easy. If you swap turkey in place of another meat in your favourite dish, such as spaghetti bolognese just once a week, you could reduce your saturated fat intake by up to two thirds (11g) per portion**.
Turkey breast meat is low in saturated fat, high in protein and a great source of essential vitamins and minerals***. Not only that, but turkey is tasty, versatile and great value for money when eaten as part of a healthy balanced diet.
