Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain and place in a large bowl.

Step 3

While the pasta is cooking, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook for about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Mix condensed soup, half-and-half, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. Add to the skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from the heat.

Step 5

Add turkey, spinach, and sauce to the penne; stir until well combined. Transfer to a casserole dish and top with mozzarella cheese.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and bubbly on top, about 30 minutes.
