This creamy ground turkey and potato casserole recipe turned out so much better than I expected!
There are some days that are just so crazy and exhausting that what to make for dinner is the last thing on your mind. Until it’s time to make dinner. That’s how it was for me a couple days ago. I ended up throwing a bunch of ingredients in a casserole dish not knowing how it would turn out and praying it was edible. This creamy ground turkey and potato casserole turned out so much better than just edible.
The flavor in the sauce for this is absolutely amazing. The chopped red peppers added just the right touch to this creamy and cheesy goodness.
My daughter and I loved this and ate way to much of it. My husband and our son, however, wouldn’t even try because of the amount of veggies in it. Yay for picky eaters!
Even though they wouldn’t try it, I’m still considering this a total win!
Now, to warn you though, you will need to judge for yourself the amount of each seasoning you want to put in it. I was in such a hurry that I didn’t measure a thing and just went with it. But that’s part of what makes cooking so fun. Creating and playing around with seasonings and flavors is part of why I love it so much. Go with your gut and have fun with it!
I would love to hear from you! If you try this recipe, let me know how it turned out!
