This is the ultimate comfort food casserole, only sans the canned cream soups, preservatives and processed ingredients.
It’s hot, meaty, creamy, and surprisingly veggie-packed. Also, it freezes well, which means you can make a double batch and stow away the extras for a busy week!
The addition of eggs and goat cheese (optional) along with the butternut squash gives this casserole a creamy texture without having to use canned soup. And while it feels and tastes like comfort food, it hides no less than seven greens and veggies.
You may know the Fab Four is a formula I created to ensure blood sugar stability and ditch dieting altogether. Protein, fat, fiber and greens are your ticket to calming hunger hormones and feeling energized and full for hours.
This casserole is the perfect example of how you can use the Fab Four to eat what you want while hitting your nutritional musts:
- Protein → turkey, eggs
- Fat → olive oil, coconut oil
- Fiber and greens → butternut squash, spinach, tomatoes, onions, garlic, celery, parsley
