4 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
3 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
1 (8 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
1 (2 ounce) jumbo tomato, diced
1 (10 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
1 (10 ounce) package pre-cooked white potatoes, thawed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup milk
1 (9 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons minced onion
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon paprika
salt to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Spread the cheese slices on top of two baking sheets. Place the mushrooms and ground turkey on top of the mushrooms and turkey slices. Spread the tomato mixture over the cheese slices. Brush the bottom of a 9 inch pie pan with 1/2 cup of the sauce.
Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove and cook the remaining 10 minutes. Sprinkle the tomatoes and potatoes over the mushrooms and turkey slices. Allow to cool slightly.
In a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, milk, tomato, mixed vegetables, pre-cooked potatoes and cream cheese. Stir all together and spread the cream cheese mixture over the mushrooms and turkey slices. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of sauce over the cream cheese mixture. Spread the remaining mushroom mixture over the top of the cream cheese.
Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork. Serve warm.
I don't usually write reviews but this was a wonderful side dish. I made it exactly according to the recipe, and it turned out perfectly.....almost identical to the first time. I think it got a little too soupy for my taste, so I'd like to substitute 1/2 c shredded cabbage or 1/2 c grated parmesan 1/2 for the last 10 minutes of cooking. Either way, it was thoroughly delicious.
I thought this was a great, healthy alternative to the potato salad. I added some sliced carrots and baked in a 9x13 baking dish instead of in a deep dish crust. I didn't have to bake very long, as the potatoes were ready in 15 minutes. I had to make some adjustments, however, because the potatoes were kind of tough before, and I had to put in a little salt and pepper. Still, not bad, and I bet they'll continue to be tasty, as long as you remember to stir-fry them properly when they're done. Update: I forgot to add the milk, so I added half the dry mix to the batter, and it still didn't add up. I took the time to stir-fry the potatoes correctly, as indicated in step 3, and I also included the dry mix in the batter, not just the water. It took me
