Preparation

1. Crush bread sticks in a baggie and save for the topping.
2. Weigh out 14 ounces of cauliflower, place in a bowl.
3. Chop up fresh herbs.
4. Place cauliflower, salt, celery flakes, and herbs into a bowl and evenly mix ingredients.
5. Place seasoned cauliflower on a cookie sheet and roast the cauliflower for 10 minutes.
6. Remove from the oven and let cool; break the cauliflower into tiny pieces for the casserole topping.

1. Spray your sauté pan with non-stick cooking spray and brown up the 14 ounces of ground turkey, occasionally adding chicken stock for flavor and deglazing the pan.
2. Remove turkey, set aside.  DO NOT WASH YOUR SAUTE PAN!

1. Place 1 cup of stock into your sauté pan and reduce down until it is brown in the pan.
2. Add the second cup of stock and all spices EXCEPT the Xanthan gum.  Stir all ingredients for 2-3 minutes.
3. Add 1/8 of a teaspoon of Xanthan gum, and stir. If it is not as thick as you would like, add another 1/8 teaspoon.  (Please note; when heat is used with Xanthan gum, it will thicken very quickly)

1. Spray an 8 x 8 square casserole dish and evenly spread the cooked turkey.
2. Mix the breadsticks and cauliflower to make the topping.
3. Place the topping evenly on top of the turkey.
4. Bake for 10-15 minutes at 400 degrees.
5. Cut casserole into 4 equal servings/squares.
