- Bake at 350 for 25 minutes, if desired after baking top with a little sprinkle of cheese and broil for 3-4 minutes to brown. Serve immediately.
Notes
- If the ground turkey produces a lot of liquid or fat after browning, drain before continuing.
- To ensure the tots get extra crispy and not soggy, broil the casserole on high after baking for just a few minutes to give the tots a nice crust and a golden brown finish.
- Leftover casserole can be cooled completely and stored in airtight containers in the fridge for 2-3 days. While best enjoyed immediately, this can be reheated in the oven (preferred) or in the microwave until warm.
