Equipment

  • 13x9 baking dish

Ingredients
 

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 8 ounces pasta (small shelled pasta)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (4% milk fat or sub with whole milk ricotta cheese)
  • 1.5 cup milk
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning
  • 2 sleeve ritz crackers (crumbled)
  • 6 tablespoon butter (melted)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • First, brown the ground turkey in a frying pan. Season the turkey lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Now, in a bowl combine the cream cheese, cottage cheese milk and ranch together. Taste for salt and pepper here because this is the main sauce.
  • Next, preheat the oven to 350℉ and cook the noodles according to the package. While the noodles are boiling crush the Ritz crackers and mix them with the melted butter.
  • Then, once the noodles are drained mix together the noodle, ground turkey and the sauce from earlier. Add half the ritz crackers for a bottom layer in the baking dish. Spread everything on top of the crackers. Lastly, top with the rest of the buttered crackers.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until top is golden brown.
  • Lastly, allow to cool a bit before serving.
