{Skinny Beef Casserole}

One of the many great things about being snowed in last week was I got the opportunity to try out some new, hearty, and healthy dinner dishes.  I came across this recipe on Skinny Mom, and I was immediately drawn to the picture.  It looked so delicious, and I couldn't wait to try it.

I swapped out the beef for ground turkey meat, and I have also added mushrooms and other veggies to the recipe.  Overall, this is so simple to prepare, and it is husband and wife approved in my house!!  I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do!!
