In a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat, add the ground turkey and cook for about 5 minutes or until browned.

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, and sauté for another 3 minutes, or until the onions are translucent.

Stir in the elbow macaroni, diced tomatoes, milk, and the seasoning mix. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

5

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes or until the macaroni is cooked to your liking, stirring occasionally.

Once the macaroni is done, cube the Velveeta cheese and stir it into the skillet until fully melted and all combined.

Season with pepper to taste, ensuring the flavors are well-balanced.
