Cheeseburger Casserole



Cheeseburger Casserole (adapted from Paula Deen’s Cookbook for the Lunchbox Set cookbook): 
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • One 28 oz can chopped/diced Italian flavored tomatoes 
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 small can tomato paste
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 8 oz noodles
  • 2 cups grated cheddar cheese
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large skillet, cook the ground turkey over medium heat. Drain the fat. Add the tomatoes with their juice, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, oregano, 1/2 tsp salt, pepper, and garlic salt. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to low. Simmer for about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain noodles and combine with the meat mixture. Pour into a 9x13 baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Top with cheese. Bake for about 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted. Serve and enjoy.
