There’s nothing more comforting than a casserole in the oven! I’ve got a delicious comfort food recipe to share with you: Campanelle Italian Casserole made with Progresso™ Bread Crumbs Italian Style that I purchased at Walmart. Eating this casserole brings back memories of when we were vacationing in Breckenridge and were in need of comfort food in our snowy setting!

I shopped at Walmart for my Progresso™ Bread Crumbs Italian Style in the baking aisle and I made an amazing deal discovery! We always keep Progresso™ Bread Crumbs stocked in our pantry because we use them in many ways including topping a casserole and for breading chicken and fish. Ok – are you ready to learn about my amazing deal?

If you buy the 15 oz. size of Progresso™ Bread Crumbs Italian Style it costs $1.72. But if you buy the 40 oz. size of Progresso™ Bread Crumbs Italian Style it costs only $1.88 – that’s only 16 cents more for 25 more ounces of product! What a great deal – I actually shared it with a fellow shopper who was also buying bread crumbs and she was thrilled! Please note that prices may vary by store and online.

Now that you know how to get a great deal on Progresso™ Bread Crumbs, you can make my Campanelle Italian Casserole recipe. The campanelle pasta noodle is not as well-known but I like it because it’s small and curly. You may substitute it with another small noodle like macaroni if you wish.

Here is my recipe for Campanelle Italian Casserole. I love it because it’s a one-dish meal complete with meat and vegetables. It also would freeze well and it is fabulous for taking to a friend when you’ve got it to the point where it’s oven-ready.

Campanelle Italian Casserole

Ingredients:

1 box (1 lb) of Campanelle Pasta Noodles (or another small noodle)
1 lb italian seasonsed ground turkey
1 package (10.5 oz) fresh italian vegetable blend
1 package (16 oz) fresh cauliflower crumbles
2 jars (16 oz each) alfredo sauce
4 drops hot pepper sauce
2 1/2 cups finely shredded parmesan cheese
1 container (15 oz) of Progresso™ Bread Crumbs Italian Style

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees
2. Prepare pasta according to package directions to be cooked “al dente”
3. While pasta is cooking, saute the ground turkey in a skillet on the stove until well done
4. In a large bowl, mix vegetables, pasta, turkey, alfredo sauce and hot pepper sauce
5. In a small bowl, mix parmesan cheese and bread crumbs for casserole topping
6. Spoon casserole mixture into oven-safe dishes and top with casserole topping. You will likely have leftover topping which you can refrigerate and use for a different recipe
7. Bake casserole for 25 minutes. Let it cool before serving.

I hope you enjoy this comfort food recipe as much as my family did and that it takes you back to memories of snowy mountain retreats!
