Turkey Tetrazzini

Turkey Tettrazini
I was inspired to type up my recipe for Terizzini today, I had a neighborhood friend ask me for a recipe for dried out turkey, so Linda Fordyce this recipe is for you! I love the combination of mushrooms, cream sauce, cheese and pasta. This recipe can be made with any type of pasta you have on hand and is usually made with spaghetti, thus spaghetti tetrazzini. The white wine really works perfectly with the butter, mushrooms and garlic. If you don’t do alcohol you can substitute chicken broth. this is an amazing dish – and it is perfect for dried out turkey or chicken! Got to love that . . . Bon Appetit my friend, Cecelia
