Directions

Prep 12 minCook 45 min

1
Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly coat a 9x13-inch casserole dish with nonstick spray.
2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the macaroni until just al dente according to package directions, then drain well.
3
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and minced garlic. Cook, breaking up the meat, until browned and no longer pink. Season with the salt and pepper.
4
Stir in the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and Dijon mustard. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened and bubbly, 3–5 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.
5
Combine the cooked macaroni with the turkey-tomato mixture until evenly coated.
6
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar evenly over the top and bake until the cheese is melted and the casserole is hot and bubbling around the edges, 20–25 minutes.
8
Top with the chopped pickles just before serving.
