I have abandoned fatty ground beef in favor of healthier options such as ground chicken and turkey. I can ensure with the perfect additions, these will not be bland nor dry - you will not be missing the beef here.

- 1 pound ground chicken
- 2 eggs , lightly beaten
- 0.25 cups roasted garlic light cream cheese

- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1.5 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
