Turkey-Tastic Creamy Shirataki Bowls

Ingredients:

• 1 pound raw extra-lean ground turkey
• 2 packages of Tofu Shirataki Spaghetti Shaped noodle substitute (I just used Smart Taste Whole wheat pasta noodles)
• One 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained (optional, I skipped these)
• One 10.75 ounce can 98% fat-free cream of mushroom condensed soup
• 1 wedge The Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss cheese, room temperature
• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 1 cup fat-free chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 6 tablespoons fat-free sour cream
• 1/2 cup chopped scallions
• 2 tablespoons dry onion soup/dip seasoning mix
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

1. Rinse and drain shirataki noodles well. Dry noodles thoroughly, using paper towels to soak up as much moisture as possible. Use a knife or kitchen shears to slice them up a bit. Set aside.
2. To prepare sauce, combine mushroom soup with 1/4 cup water, cheese wedge, and sour cream, stirring until mixed thoroughly. Set aside.
3. Place turkey in a large bowl. Sprinkle with seasoned salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to distribute spices.
4. In a small dish, combine onion seasoning mix with 1/2 cup water. Stir thoroughly.
5. Spray a large pan with nonstick spray and bring to medium heat. Add seasoned turkey and the onion seasoning mixture. Cook until liquid has been mostly absorbed and turkey is fully browned, about 15 minutes. Then transfer turkey to another bowl.
6. Remove pan from heat and re-spray with nonstick spray. Over medium heat, add noodles, broccoli, broth, carrots and water chestnuts. Stir until entire dish is hot.
7. Return turkey to the pan. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until vegetables have softened, 7 to 8 minutes. Add scallions and sauce and stir. Continue to cook for 1 additional minute, or until sauce is evenly distributed and hot.
8. Serve each portion in a bowl and top with a tablespoon of sour cream. YUMMY!

As you can probably guess, this recipe originally came from the Hungry Girl 200 under 200 cookbook. And did you noticed T gave it a 10!! This is the first 'real' food recipe he has given a 10 to. The other two items he has given 10's are sweets, but this was SO yummy (and EASY)!
