Layered Taco Casserole
Ingredients
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 garlic
- 1/2 chili powder
- 1/2 medium onion 187 grams
- 1/2 cup fat free cheddar cheese 56 grams
- 3/4 cup of low fat cottage cheese 170 grams
- 1/4 cup fat free sour cream 60 grams
- 1 package extra lean ground turkey 598 grams
- 1 can black beans 277 gram
- 4.4 ounce can of corn 276 grams
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray a large rectangle baking pan with cookie spray.
- Finely chop up the onion, add it into a sprayed pan, and sauté over medium until fully cooked.
- Remove the onion, place into a bowl, and set aside.
- In the same pan that you cooked the onion, cook the ground turkey along with the spices. Refer to the note above to make sure your ground turkey is not dry!
- Once the turkey is done cooking, add into the bowl with the onion. Drain the canned corn, and canned beans, and add. Fold together.
- Pre measure the sour cream and cottage cheese into separate bowls, this is not necessary, but it will help when it comes time to assemble the casserole.
- Spoon some of the ground turkey mixture into the baking pan, just enough to cover the bottom.
- Now top with a layer of cottage cheese, and sour cream (do not use all of it, you will repeat this step a few times).
- Top with more of the ground turkey mixture, then layer with more of the cottage cheese, and sour cream. Do this until you are out of both.
- Top with the fat free cheddar, and bake for 30 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy.
