Years ago a friend gave me her recipe for Turkey Tetrazzini...I have used it many times.
Cook an 8 oz pkg thin spaghetti. Place in large buttered baking pan.
Saute a small chopped onion in 2 T butter; add 2 T flour and stir.
Add 1 large can evaporated milk; stir till smooth.
Add some diced pimento and a 3 oz can sliced mushrooms w/liquid.
Add l C shredded Provolone cheese.
Pour mixture over spaghetti and gently combine.
Sprinkle 1/2 C grated Parmesan cheese over top.
Bake 20 min at 400.
**I sometimes substitute with chicken and I have used Cheddar cheese in the mixture**
Does the turkey or chicken get added?? Chunked ,Sliced, shredded??
OOPS--that should be 3 cups of turkey--bite size pieces. Add it as you add the provolone cheese.
I can't believe I left out the TURKEY! Must be hereditary--my aunt once left out the bananas in one of her banana dishes--not the recipe, the actual dish!! - jake2250Explorer

**I sometimes substitute with chicken and I have used Cheddar cheese in the mixture** - doxiemom11Explorer IILeftover turkey, cooked noodles, can of cream of chicken soup, cooked peas, american cheese slices in - 3 or 4. Bake at 350 for 1/2 hr - take out and stir melted cheese into casserole. Put back in oven for 15 minutes. Add seasoned bread crumbs or crushed crackers to the top, bake 5 minutes longer - done and good.
You can put different vegetables in if desired. - TexasShadowExplorer IIsearch for turkey tetrazzini on the internet. very good.
- magnusfideExplorer IIThe easiest and simplest according to Herself: make your own white sauce (allrecipes.com has a bunch) and flavor it with your favorite spices. Chunk up the turkey, mix with the noodles and sauce then bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. You can even put leftover stuffing on as a topping, but we never have leftover stuffing in our house.
Herself says to try turmeric in the sauce with some garlic powder.
