LIGHTER FARE TURKEY PESTO CASSEROLE
My previous casserole recipe for this was way to high on the calorie count and fat count for my new way of eating (lifetime diet as it were). So I've revised for this lighter version which I think brings out the pesto flavor so much more. (Side note: I used leftover turkey from the freezer and because it turned out rather dry last time, this time I threw it a pot of boiling water for about 5 minutes and drained before I layered it into the casserole).

PESTO TURKEY
From "The Healing Foods Cookbook". Turkey is helpful to building your immune system as well as wound healing. Oil is said to help lower cholesterol if used in place of other saturated fats, and garlic is said to help lower the risk of heart disease. All around this recipe looks like a great one to me!
