"This dish has been prepared in our house more than any other single recipe, and was the first thing my kids learned to make (starting with the shopping)."

 

• Ready In: 50mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 (20 ounce) package ground turkey
• 1 (1 lb) box rotini pasta
• 1 (26 ounce) Classico tomato and basil pasta sauce (any sauce will do)
• 2⁄3 lb muenster cheese, cubed
• 1⁄4 cup Miracle Whip

directions

1. Place a cast iron skillet in the oven. Preheat oven to 350. While the oven is preheating bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
2. When oven is hot and water in the pot on the stove is boiling, pull out the skillet, add 2 rounds of olive oil, add turkey and saute until no longer pink (about 5 minutes).
3. As soon as the turkey is cooked add pasta to water and cook until al dente (5-6 minutes).
4. Add pasta sauce, miracle whip and cheese. Stir until cheese is melted.
5. Drain pasta (reserving about 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid) and add both to the sauce mixture. Stir to combine.
6. Place in oven (covered) and heat 15-30 minutes to allow the sauce to penetrate the pasta.
