Turkey Tetrazzini

Great dinner, also freezes well! Sarajane Luper

Makes 8 servings
Lion House Cookbook

8 ounces spaghetti, broken in pieces
5 tablespoons butter or margarine
6 tablespoons flour
3 cups chicken broth or turkey broth
1 cup light cream
1 teaspoon salt
Black pepper
1 cup frech or canned mushrooms, including liquid
5 tablespoons minced green bell peppers
3 cups cooked turkeys or chicken, cubed.
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:
Cook spaghetti in boiling salted water until just tender (do not overcook, in fact undercook if you are going to freeze it). Melt butter, blend in flour. Stir broth into flour mixture. Add cream. Cook until mixture thickens and bubbles. Add salt and pepper, cooked spaghetti, mushrooms, green peppers and cooked turkey. Turn into individual baking dishes or into 2 to 3 quart flat casserole. Sprinkle with cheeses. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned.

(you can prepare this and freeze it prior to baking)
Another option is to add red peppers and sauted onions.

Number Of Servings:8-10
