GROUND TURKEY AND GOAT CHEESE PASTA BAKE
I created this recipe one night when trying to think of other ways to use up some goat cheese I had on hand, and didn't have any pasta sauce! It actually came out better than I expected. The goat cheese gives it a wonderful creamy texture and the tomato soup, rather than sauce, gives it a hint of sweetness.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 9 to 10 minutes. Drain; return to the pot and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir turkey with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain fat.
- Combine browned turkey, cooked pasta, 1 can of tomato soup, diced tomatoes, and chopped green pepper in a bowl.
- Place one layer of the pasta mixture in the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan. Spread 1/3 of the 2nd can of tomato soup over this layer; add 1/3 of the crumbled goat cheese, and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese. Repeat with second and third layers of pasta, ensuring that the top layer is completely covered with mozzarella.
- Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and cheese is melted and browned on top, 20 to 30 minutes.
