I created a delish casserole last night with organic ground turkey, sauteed with mushrooms, kale, garlic, sweet red peppers, and onion. Made a roue (sp?) and threw in white wine, parmesan cheese. Layered with bits of buffalo mozzarella. Bake at 350, covered, then uncover for 10 minutes to crisp. yum!
