Very delicious way to use leftover turkey. This is the 3rd tetrazzini recipe we've tried after Thanksgiving holiday and my DH says it was the best one! Instead of chicken bouillon and water, I used 2 cups of chicken stock. I drained the sliced mushrooms, and there was still plenty of moisture left. Overall a family-style dish that I will turn to again and again. Thanks, Noo! Made for PRMR tag game.

Tagged in Zaar Stars. Everyone enjoyed this, even the picky 6 yo ate it all (he's been complaining about all meat dishes lately!) I used chicken broth instead of hot water and added a little more bcz the noodles (w.w. spaghetti) soaked up too much b4 they were done. Used ricotta for the cottage and no mushrooms. The cayenne gave it a little kick, but not enough to put off the kids. I will add garlic next time to boost the flavor.

I chose this Tetrazzini over the other ones on Zaar because it was the first one I found that didn't ask for Cream of Mushroom Soup. I dare to say that I liked this dish better than the thanksgiving dinner I had yesterday! This is a wonderful way to use up the left-over turkey. I used fresh mushrooms instead of canned, (I sauteed them in the butter before adding the flour). I also used Whole wheat pasta and added a little bit of bread crumbs on top of the cheese. It was bubbling and piping hot after cooking for 23 mins, so I took it out early. This is a keeper. I'm recommending it to all my friends.
