Cheap and easy Turkey Alfredo
Ingredients
  • 6 oz dry linguine noodles (this is a little less than half of a standard 16 oz package -- you can estimate this)
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 1 15-oz jar alfredo sauce
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • 4 oz can sliced mushrooms -- drained
  • 2 cups shredded turkey
  • 10 oz package steam-in-bag frozen broccoli florets
  • ½ cup shredded parmesan or mozzarella cheese (optional)
Instructions
  1. Prepare pasta according to package instructions.
  2. While pasta is cooking, heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Stir in alfredo sauce, milk, and mushrooms. Bring mixture to a simmer/slight bubbling.
  4. Add turkey and stir occasionally while pasta finishes boiling.
  5. Once pasta has finished cooking, strain well through a colander and pour into sauce mixture (don’t let pasta sit in the colander too long or it will begin to stick together). Stir well and reduce heat to medium-low.
  6. Microwave broccoli florets according to package instructions and stir into alfredo sauce until all ingredients are well-combined.
  7. Top with parmesan cheese, if desired, and serve once cheese is melty.
