Layered Supper Time Casserole

 4 Servings

8 oz Extra lean ground turkey or beef
1 c Finely chopped celery
1 c Chopped onion
1 1/2 c (2.25 oz) can Healthy Request Cream of Celery Soup
1/4 c Land O Lakes no-fat sour cream
1/2 c (1 - 2.5 oz jar) sliced mushrooms, undrained
1 c Water
2 t Dried parsley flakes
1/8 t Black pepper
1 1/2 c (2.25 oz) unseasoned dry bread cubes

Preheat oven to 350F. Spray an 8x8 inch baking pan with butter-flavored cooking spray. In a large skillet sprayed with butter-flavored cooking spray, brown meat, onion and celery. Spoon
meat mixture into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle bread cubes evenly over meat mixture.

In a small bowl, combine celery soup, sour cream, water, undrained mushrooms, parsley flakes and black pepper. Evenly spoon soup mixture over top. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Place baking dish on a wire rack and let set for 5 minutes. Divide into 4 servings.

Serves 4: Each serving equals:

Hint: Pepperidge Farm bread cubes work great.

Lin's notes: I think a little less water would help bind the mixture together better. I also added a bit of celery salt and some of Emeril's Essence.
