Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 32 oz marinara sauce I like Rao's
  • 12 oz gluten free spaghetti or tagliatelle
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Gluten Free Alfredo Sauce

  • 1 cup cottage cheese I like Good Culture
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9x13 inch casserole dish with cooking oil. 
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet and add the ground turkey, salt, Italian seasoning and garlic powder. Saute for 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until cooked through. 
  • Pour the marinara sauce over top and mix to combine. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Set aside. 
  • Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • Make the Alfredo sauce. Combine the ingredients in a blender and blend on high for 1 minute or until it is very smooth and creamy.  Add the cooled pasta to a skillet and pour the alfredo sauce over top. Mix to combine over medium heat until the sauce is heated up and thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the alfredo pasta to the bottom of the casserole dish and spread it out evenly. 
  • Pour the meat sauce over top and spread it out evenly.
  • Top with the shredded mozzarella.
  • Bake for 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and the sides are bubbling. Serve with more parmesan and fresh parsley, if desired!

Notes

Expert Tips

  • The sauce can curdle if the pasta is too hot when you combine it. Make sure your pasta has cooled off a bit before adding it to the skillet. Stir the pasta and sauce together over medium heat until it is thickened. 
  • This spaghetti alfredo recipe is versatile and easily customized. Feel free to add cooked vegetables like mushrooms or broccoli to the alfredo sauce or even more veggies in the marinara sauce. Casseroles like this one are an easy way to sneak in extra veggies for picky eaters who don't eat them on their own.

Serving Tips

  • Serve on its own or with a green salad or Caesar salad and your favorite gluten-free garlic bread. Garnish with more parmesan cheese and chopped basil if desired.

Storage Tips

  • Store leftover TikTok spaghetti alfredo in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat individual servings in the microwave or reheat in the oven at 350 until the pasta is warmed through. 
  • To freeze, follow all of the steps in the recipe card, but do not bake it (Step 9). Cool the spaghetti to room temperature, then wrap the dish tightly in plastic wrap. If you have a lid for the dish, secure it on top. Store it in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to bake, thaw it overnight in the fridge and bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
