Angela’s Italian Melt Casserole

By LadyJ1114

Ingredients

• 1 Vidalia onion, chopped
• 1 bag baby spinach
• 1 clove garlic, minced*
• Optional: sliced mushrooms
• 1 1/2 lb. ground turkey or ground
• turkey/Italian sausage combo
• 1 (10 oz.) can of Italian-style diced tomatoes
• 1 (12 oz.) can of cannelini beans,
• drained and rinsed of canning liquids
• 2 c. Italian-blend shredded cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees then spray a skillet with nonstick cooking spray and set it over medium heat on your stove and allow it to get hot.


Add onion and sautee until slightly soft. Add spinach and sautee until wilted. If you choose to add mushrooms, do so now and cook until soft. Finally, add garlic.


Add meat to pan and brown, mixing vegetables into the meat mixture. When the meat is completely browned, add in your tomatoes and beans and stir through.


Transfer to a 13x9 casserole dish, cover with cheese and bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until cheese is bubbly. I personally would let it go another 5-7 minutes until the cheese is browned!


Thank you, Angela, for sharing this recipe! I actually think I'm gonna make it
