One of my favorite dishes to make when I need my cheesy fix! Lean ground turkey, mushroom, and ricotta stuffed shells..Not exactly the "healthiest" option only because of the amount of cheese I use, but still a good source of protein in the turkey and at least I know what I am putting in my food and my body (as opposed to restaurant cooking where much more butters and oils are used!).

In Crockpot:
-Add Jennie-O Italian ground turkey, mushrooms & green onions in crockpot and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3.5 hours (mix and match veggies of your choice if you don't want mushrooms and green onions)

Oven/Stove
​-Boil shells as instructed on box
​-Once turkey is done, mix with 16oz ricotta cheese, one egg, & pepper
​-Stuff shells and pour your choice of pasta sauce on top (in baking dish)
​-Add shredded mozzarella cheese on top
-Bake at 350 degrees for 50 min

An easy & delicious meal to prep before work or heading out for the day to ensure that you stay on track once you are back home!
