1 green onion, chopped including greens

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Spray coat a 13 x 9 inch Pyrex pan with olive oil cooking spray, and set aside.

Prepare garlic mashed potato.

Prepare Alfredo sauce.  Whisk the roasted garlic into the Alfredo sauce.

On medium heat, in a large saute pan heat olive oil. Add garlic and onion, and cook until onions are translucent. Do not allow garlic to burn. Add celery, green onion, parsley, and oregano and continue to saute.

Add ground turkey to the saute pan and saute until turkey is almost cooked through. Add matchstick carrots and broccoli slaw and continue to cook turkey until completely cooked through. and vegetables are wilted.  Turn heat down to low and add Alfredo sauce to the saute pan. Continue to cook until sauce and turkey are heated through. Set aside.

Coat the bottom of the pyrex using half of the garlic mashed potato. Layer turkey mixture over the mashed potato base. Top the turkey with the remaining mashed potato.

Mix together the Parmesan cheese and Italian bread crumbs. Top with the crumb mixture over the top mashed potato layer. Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes, or until top coat begins to turn golden.

Let stand 10 to 15 minutes before serving. ENJOY!
