In fact, my dinner was so pretty, so yummy smelling, that they all wanted some, too! And you know what? They didn't know there was no "real" cheese in it! Ha! Sneaky Chelle strikes again! But the very best part of this recipe is that it comes together in about 15 minutes!! Woot!! If you don't have precooked turkey or chicken breast, grab a rotisserie chicken on the way home and whip this one up tonight. You will NOT be disappointed!!

Ingredients:
6 oz cooked Turkey Breast, diced into cubes (I roast a couple turkey breasts in my one-day food prep to have on hand throughout the week. You can use rotisserie chicken breast, too.)
5 sliced brown mushrooms
1 cup baby spinach
1/4 cup diced onion (I like red)
1/4 tsp Mrs Dash Garlic and Herb or Italian Blend
Olive Oil cooking spray
1/4 cup Marinara sauce (I used Newman's Own)
1/4 cup Daiya Mozzarella shreds
Instructions: (see step by step photos below)
Wash and chop mushrooms and onion.
Heat non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil cooking spray.
Add mushrooms, onions and Mrs Dash. Cook until softened.
Add spinach and cooked turkey breast, spray with oil again if needed.
Stir, cooking until spinach is wilted and turkey is warmed.
Remove from heat.
Immediately add marinara and "cheese", stirring to combine.
Allow to rest 1 minute for "cheese" to melt.
Serve.
Tips:
This recipe is gluten free, dairy free, corn free, and chicken free. You may replace the turkey with chicken breast, if you prefer.
If you can tolerate dairy, replace the Daiya cheese with mozzarella, but be aware that the nutritional information will change.
I encourage you tot try this recipe as it is written. It's super creamy, melty-cheesy, and full of "lasagna" flavor! My family had no idea there was no "real" cheese in it, and they LOVED it!!
