🥛Milk🌾WheatSwaps and substitutions
For a vegetarian version, swap the turkey for cooked lentils, crumbled tofu, or a plant-based mince that suits you. To avoid dairy or gluten, use dairy-free ricotta and mozzarella plus a wheat-free pasta that holds up well in baked dishes.
What to serve with it
Serve this with a crisp green salad, roasted broccoli, or garlicky green beans to add freshness and balance to the rich, cheesy bake. Warm bread is also a nice extra if you want a more filling, comfort-style dinner.
