Turkey breast: nutrition per 100 g and example portion

Reference preparation: raw turkey breast. The exact source name is “Turkey breast” (Fineli food 11551). Available carbohydrate excludes fiber and is not the same measure as US Total Carbohydrate.

Values are rounded after scaling. A small reported amount may round below 0.1 g; a missing value is marked Not available rather than treated as zero. This selected extract does not include sugar, sodium or micronutrient amounts; the full Fineli database contains information beyond these tables.

How to weigh turkey breast

Use a raw edible turkey-breast weight with this table. Cooked breast loses water and has a different concentration per 100 g. Deli turkey, brined breast and breaded cutlets are separate products and may include ingredients beyond plain turkey.

Calculate your own turkey breast portion

For the 150 g example, multiply the source amounts by 150 ÷ 100 = 1.5. The unrounded energy calculation is 121.9 × 1.5 = 182.85 kcal, displayed as approximately 183 kcal. Use the same factor for protein, available carbohydrate, fat and fiber.

For another amount, replace 150 with your own edible weight. Keep the preparation as raw turkey breast; if your food is prepared differently, choose a matching reference or calculate its recipe instead.

How preparation changes the estimate

For a batch roast, record the raw breast and additions, then divide by the final cooked yield. Count gravy and oil separately. A lean cut still needs safe cooking and handling; the table describes nutrient composition rather than food-safety readiness.

Meal ideas using turkey breast

Use these combinations as menu ideas and adjust the amounts to your appetite and preferences. Each added ingredient belongs in the complete meal estimate.
