Ingredients
Ground Turkey
Ground turkey serves as the base for this dish, offering a lean protein option that keeps it lighter than traditional beef. You’ll need one pound of ground turkey to create a flavorful filling.
Onion
One medium onion adds sweetness and depth to the dish. Chop it finely so it cooks evenly and blends well with the other ingredients.
Garlic
Two cloves of minced garlic enhance the flavor profile of your hot dish. Garlic brings a rich aroma and taste that complements the ground turkey perfectly.
Mixed Vegetables
A cup of frozen mixed vegetables adds color and nutrition. This can include peas, carrots, and corn for a balanced meal that’s also visually appealing.
Cream of Mushroom Soup
One can (10.5 ounces) of cream of mushroom soup creates a creamy base for your hot dish. It binds the ingredients together while adding richness.
Shredded Cheese
One cup of shredded cheddar cheese provides a deliciously melty topping. Choose sharp cheddar for enhanced flavor that contrasts nicely with the creamy filling.
Tater Tots
A bag (approximately 32 ounces) of frozen tater tots tops off this dish with a crunchy texture. They add comfort and fun to every bite.
Salt and Pepper
Season to taste with salt and pepper. These basic seasonings are essential in bringing out the flavors of all other ingredients.
