Turkey Noodle Casserole
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cups wide egg noodles
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 1/4 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius).
2
Next, lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray to prevent it from sticking.
3
Heat a large skillet over high heat on your stovetop. Add sliced turkey and chopped onion; cook and stir constantly until the turkey is nicely browned, crumbly, and the onion is soft, taking about 10 minutes. Drain excess moisture.
4
Prepare a large pot of salted water by filling it up and bringing it to a rolling boil. Cook egg noodles in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until they are cooked through yet still retain a bit of firmness, taking around 5 minutes. Drain the noodles and return them to the pot.
5
While the water is heating up, combine tomato sauce and Italian herbs in the turkey mixture; bring it to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot; let it simmer for 10 minutes.
6
Simultaneously, combine milk, softened cream cheese, chopped parsley, and minced garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir constantly until the cream cheese is fully melted, taking about 5 minutes. Pour this creamy mixture over cooked egg noodles; stir to combine.
7
Transfer the prepared! and noodle mixture to the lightly greased baking dish.
8
Layer the cooked turkey mixture over the noodles; sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
9
Bake the casserole in your preheated oven until it's hot! the cheese is melted, taking 15 to 30 minutes.
