Turkey and Hash Brown Casserole

  3.8 – 34 reviews  • Ground Turkey Recipes

The first time the famous Chicago hotel, the Palmer House, kept a record of their brownie recipe was in 1898. The brownies in this recipe will still be ooey after baking, so don’t rely on the conventional stick test to determine when they’re done. Glazed brownies should be frozen for three to four hours for easier cutting.

Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 45 mins
Total Time: 1 hr
Servings: 6
Yield: 1 8×12-inch casserole

Ingredients

  1. ¼ cup oil
  2. 1 pound frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
  3. 1 pound ground turkey breast
  4. 1 large onion, cut into chunks
  5. 1 (10 ounce) package frozen broccoli, thawed
  6. 1 (10.5 ounce) can reduced-fat condensed cream of mushroom soup
  7. 1 cup reduced-fat condensed cream of celery soup
  8. 1 cup shredded fat-free Cheddar cheese
  9. ⅓ cup skim milk
  10. ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  11. ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  12. seasoned salt to taste
  13. 1 medium tomato, diced (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8×12-inch casserole dish.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook hash browns until golden. Spread hash browns over the bottom and sides of the prepared dish to form a crust.
  3. Cook turkey in a separate skillet over medium heat until lightly browned. Mix in onion and cook until tender. Place broccoli in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Spread turkey, onion, and broccoli over hash browns in the casserole dish.
  4. In a bowl, mix both condensed soups, Cheddar cheese, milk, garlic powder, pepper, and seasoned salt together. Pour over casserole.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 25 minutes. Garnish with chopped tomato and serve.

Use a nonstick pan for the shredded potatoes. The recipe didn’t call for that and the potatoes didn’t brown. It was more like turkey cottage pie. It was good but no crunch. Recommend cookware please!

This recipe is great! I used turkey breast that I cubed and cooked prior to adding it and also used 2 pounds of hash browns. Added seasoning salt and pepper to the hash browns and the turkey as well. I also added additional cheddar to the top after it was done cooking and then just put it back in the oven (with the oven off) for another 10 minutes. On my plate, I added a little bit more salt and pepper and a bit of cayenne pepper. When I make this next time I am going to use minced garlic instead of garlic powder and I’m going to add cayenne pepper to the soup mix. I’m also going to add some bacon next time as I think that would be excellent! Thank you for the recipe. 🙂

I made this one with reduced fat cheese instead of fat free because I couldn’t find fat free cheddar at the store. It was good, but I would mix everything together next time rather that have the hash brown crust and use fat free ricotta cheese instead of the cheddar and milk. Toasted bread crumb topping would be nice to add too.

The recipe was easy to make but just took longer then the recipe states. I thought the turkey was a bit bland even with the onion and there was too much of the mixture on top. I may try this again and adjust it to something I think could be better. I definitely like the hash brown on the bottom.

I replaced the hash browns for diced, baked sweet potatoes; then added green beans in place of broccoli. Very tasty stuff.
Paula Barrett
My family loved it and ate the whole plate. I didnt have cream of celery, but it was still good
Megan Poole
So easy and delicious! Found this with the ingredients finder (looking for ground turkey and broccoli) and luckily had everything else on hand, because it was awesome. Will definitely be making it again!
Kari Todd
This has become a regular recipe in our home. It is great when I need a ground turkey recipe & I usually have these ingredients (or similiar) on hand. I substitute cream of asparagus or cream of broccoli for the cream of mushroom, since my husband doesn’t eat mushrooms. Thank you for the recipe!

i loved all the advice by the other people that reviewed this recipe but i am surprised no one mentioned the “blandness” of the hashbrowns. everything was full off flavor as for the top layer of the casserole, but the potatoes could have used something. salt,cheese, something?? almost like i could have mixed the potatoes in with the mix and use it as the bottom and top layer of the casserole. things i did change in the recipe: used half can of cream of chicken and a cup of sour cream instead of the cream of celery, loved it and added more cheese to the mixture. also used others advice and used 2 lbs of the hash browns. cooked the casserole for 45 min instead of 30 because it seemed cold after 30 still. i would give this recipe a 3 1/2 star but i cant. so three will do. easy to make, may make again if i figure out how to make the hash browns less bland.

This was kind of bland. I am not familiar with a frozen hash brown producet in a 1lb size, so I used “Simply Potatoes” hash browns. The 1 cup cream of celery soup was odd too — is that 1 cup of undiluted soup (which would leave some leftover) or 1 cup of canned cream of celery soup, prepared??
Sandra Garcia
Good easy one-dish recipe. I skipped browning the hash browns, just spreading them in the sprayed pan, which cut down on prep time. I also used fresh steamed broccoli, zucchini, and mushrooms instead of just frozen broccoli. The family liked it, but didn’t love it. I really liked it.
Nathan Snow
I took A LOT of shortcuts with this recipe. I browned the turkey without the oil and while that was cooking, I microwaved the broccoli according to the directions. I mixed 2 whole cans of cream of mushroom soup with 1/2 cup of milk and doubled the garlic powder and pepper. I omitted the onion-not a fan. Once the turkey and broccoli was done, I combined it with the soup mixture and dumped in 2 drained cans of diced potatoes. Once this all of this was mixed, I put it in the oven for 25 minutes and it was delicious. Will definitely make again. Next time I may add a little sourcream for some zip!

I was looking for a recipe to use things I had on hand without rushing out to the store. As such, I had to make a couple of alterations to the recipe. I used fresh potatoes, that I shredded myself – 4 large russets to make about 2 pounds of hash browns. I cut down on the cook time by using my double-patented “dirty the whole kitchen” method ™. I cooked all of the hash browns in one batch on my griddle while I browned the ground turkey and onions on the stove. I only microwaved my broccoli until it was not frozen solid, as I wanted it to be crisp and not mushy in the casserole. I used 1 can cream of mushroom, one half can milk, and half a cup of sour cream for the sauce because I’m not really a fan of heavy “cream-of” flavor. I actually found that this was PLENTY of sauce for us. Using the full amount of soup would probably have ended up with mush. What we had was a surprisingly delicious casserole. I might add a bit more cheese if I made it again, but otherwise it’s a good go-to for a pantry-ready dish.

I was looking for something different for dinner and ran across this my family loved it!!! Its feeds quite a few ppl and very easy to throw together. I used some left over Thanksgiving turkey I had it the freezer that made it even easier thanks for a great recipe this one goes into the rotation!!!
Brian Chang
I’ll give it 3 because I think this would have been better with tater tots in the bottom of the pan & I’ll be trying that next time. It’d also cut down on the prep time as well…
Joe Williams
This was great but I did make a couple of changes. I made homemade hash browns instead of store bought and I used the full can of cream of celery soup with less milk. Worked well and I was not left with 2 oz of soup.
Dennis Bowers
I followed this recipe perfectly, and it is NOT good. The flavor is okay, but it looks like mush and my husband (who usually eats everything) asked me to never make it again. I use a LOT of recipes off this website and unfortunately have to give my first ‘2’ on this one.
Johnny Williams
It was fine, but a bit bland and soupy. Would not make again.
Mrs. Caitlin Coleman
Just okay for us. Nothing special.
Michelle Carney
This was great! I did have to make a few changes SORRY! I had to omit cream of celery, onion and garlic powder. I then added broccoli cheese soup fresh garlic, two ribs of celery, minced and 1/2 package onion soup mix. Mix everything together, put a lid on it turn to low and simmer for 20 minutes. My oven broke so I have to improvise. Thanks for the great recipe.
Michael Brown
This recipe was so different that I had to try it. I used fresh potatoes and browned them first, then I used fresh broccoli instead of frozen and microwaved it. I didn’t use any cheese, and used the entire cans of soup. It was good – we liked it – and I’ll probably make it again sometime.
