Why did your employer give you these meals? If it was for their convenience (ex. to keep you from having to leave the facility to go eat), then this is not a taxable event as it is for the convenience of the employer.
If the meals were not for the convenience of the employer, then this generally should be included in box 1 of your W-2. If your employer did not include this in your W-2, then you would include it under Other Miscellaneous Income as Other Wages Received.
To do this in TurboTax you will select the following (note your navigation may be slightly different due to differences in user experiences)
- Federal
- Wages and Income
- I'll choose what I work on
- Less Common Income
- Miscellaneous Income
- Other Reportable Income
