Ground Turkey Hashbrown Casserole

Print Recipe

A comforting and budget-friendly casserole featuring seasoned ground turkey, frozen hash browns, and gooey cheddar cheese, perfect for family dinners and potlucks.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey (lean or regular)
  • 1 package frozen hash browns (about 20–30 oz; shredded or diced)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add oil if using very lean turkey. Sauté the diced onion until translucent, about 3–4 minutes.
  3. Add the ground turkey and minced garlic. Cook until no pink remains, seasoning with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey mixture with frozen hash browns, 1 cup milk, and half of the shredded cheddar. Mix well.
  5. Spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar on top.
  6. Bake for 30–35 minutes or until hot and bubbly, and the top is lightly browned. Let rest for 5–10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For more creaminess, stir in 4 oz of cream cheese or a half cup of sour cream. To make it gluten-free, verify that your frozen hash browns don’t contain any added wheat-based stabilizers.
