Calories in Lidl Turkey (Ireland)

Lidl turkey ranked by protein density

Showing the top 41 of the 41 Lidl turkey products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories.

What Lidl's turkey looks like next to everyone else's

Median across the 41 Lidl turkey products with usable figures is 21.4g of protein per 100 calories. That is ahead of the 19.8g median for turkey across every chain and brand in the database, which is 110 products.

34 clear 10g of protein per 100 calories — most of them, and 10g is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

The best Lidl option here reaches 23.5g of protein per 100 calories, which is as high as anything in the whole turkey group gets.

Calories run from 96 to 530 per 100g across the Lidl turkey range, a 6-fold spread, so “Lidl turkey” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to pick in Lidl

Most of this group already clears the benchmark, so the decision is price and taste rather than macros. Lidl Glensallagh Peppered Turkey Breast 7 Slices 140g tops the table at 23.5g of protein per 100 calories.

1 of the 41 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

Turkey across every Irish store is the wider group this sits in, and everything else Lidl sells is the other half of the comparison.

A protein-per-calorie number is only useful once you know the target, and that is how much protein a day actually works out to.
