I was looking for a different recipe for ground turkey besides the usual chili or meatloaf. It took a little longer to put together than I would have liked, and I didn't love the fact that I had to dirty three pans besides the one it's cooked in. But honestly, it was SOOO worth it! It was so creamy and delicious! My kids raved about it, and one of them called it \"amazing\". I made a larger recipe using a whole bag of egg noodles, 2 cans of tomato sauce, and 2.5 pounds of ground turkey, then increased the other ingredients accordingly. Baked it in a 13x9 glass dish for 20 minutes.

I think some spice could really step it up so I add 1\/2 tsp red pepper flakes, s&p, and a tbsp or 2 of salsa to the turkey mixture.

Lastly, I throw about 1-2 cups of fresh or frozen broccoli in with the pasta part way through the cooking time. After draining that, I use the same pan to make the cream sauce to eliminate an extra pan.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}}]},"video":{"data":{"status":204},"message":"No shortcode found in recipe"},"rms_legacy_id":"19104","romance_copy_dek":"Back in the 1950's, when my husband was diagnosed as diabetic, we had five children at home to feed.
