Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs yellow squash, thinly sliced
  • 1 lb ground turkey or chicken
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add ground turkey or chicken to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess fat.
  4. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the sliced squash, cooked turkey mixture, almond flour, parsley, chives, beaten eggs, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  7. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the casserole is set and golden brown on top.
  8. Let it cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground beef or pork for the turkey or chicken if preferred.
  • For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon to the mixture.
  • If you don’t have fresh herbs, you can use 1 tablespoon of dried parsley and 1 teaspoon of dried chives.
