Turkey Taco Mac


1 Pkg Elbow Macaroni (I used Shells)
1 TBSP Olive Oil
1 Medium Onion Chopped
4 Cloves Garlic Minced
1 Pound Ground Turkey
1 Package Old El Paso Taco Seasoning
1 15oz Can Diced Tomatoes
1/2 Tsp Sea Salt
1 Cup Whipping Cream
1 Egg
9oz Shredded Cheddar Cheese Divided 1/2
12 Tortilla Chips Crushed
Sour Cream to garnish


Cook pasta according to directions, drain and set aside.

Heat oven to 350° and grease 9x12" baking pan.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add onion and garlic, cook until it begins to soften. Add the ground turkey and cook thoroughly.

Add the diced tomatoes, taco seasoning and cook until thickened. 

In large measuring cup beat egg, and add whipping cream. Pour mixture into the turkey, stirring constantly. Add the cooked pasta and stir until all is coated. 

Pour half the meat mixture into the baking pan. Sprinkle 1/2 of the shredded cheese over the top. Pour over the remaining meat, cover with remaining cheese, and then sprinkle the crushed tortilla chips over the top. 

Bake for 30 minutes or until the casserole is bubbling and the top is melted and browned. 

Garnish with cold sour cream and serve.
