Cheeseburger Casserole - 6 Weight Watcher points, 6 servings
Ingredients
  • Cooking Spray
  • 2 Large Yukon Gold Potatoes
  • 2 tbsp Minced Garlic
  • 1 Small Onion, chopped
  • 1 Small Green Pepper (or any color), chopped
  • 1 lbs Uncooked Ground Turkey, this can be leftover turkey ground up
  • ⅛ tsp Ground Cumin
  • ¼ Salt
  • ⅛ tsp Black Pepper
  • 2 oz Reduced Fat Cheddar block, cubed
  • ¼ c. Skim Milk
  • 8 Low Fat Tortilla chips, crushed
  • Optional: ⅛ tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
Directions
  1. I use a crock pot 9x13 baking pan, but this can be done in the oven too by preheating oven to 350°F. Coat your baking pan with cooking spray. If you have the crock pot dish, turn it to the low setting.
  2. Thinly slice the potatoes and layer the bottom of the baking dish in a single layer of potatoes. In the oven, cook them for 10 minutes. In the crock pot, let the potatoes cook while you prepare everything else.
  3. In a skillet, cook garlic, onion, and green pepper until vegetables are tender, about 7-10 minutes. Add ground turkey and cook until it is done. Add cumin, salt and pepper and mix well.
  4. Cut cheese into small cubes. Add cheese and milk to turkey mixture and mix well so cheese starts to melt in the mixture.
  5. Pour turkey mixture over top of potatoes and spread evenly. This is where you would add red pepper flakes over the top if you want. In the oven, bake 35 minutes. In the crock pot, you can let this sit on the low setting for however long you want, you may need to reduce to WARM setting if you want to leave it all day and then up it back to LOW 15 minutes before eating.
  6. Just before serving sprinkle crushed chips over top and eat.
