Is turkey healthy?
About 95% of us Americans eat turkey for Thanksgiving dinner. And guess what? It’s good for you too! Turkey is:
low in fat
high in B vitamins
packed with lean protein
And it’s illegal for hormones or steroids to be added to turkey. How’s that for healthy?
What is turkey tetrazzini?
Tetrazzini is an American comfort food that has diced meat (in this case turkey), pasta, and vegetables in a creamy, buttery cheese sauce.
Ingredients
8 ounces spaghetti
1 pound turkey cooked and diced small
½ teaspoon seasoned salt
5 tablespoons butter
1 cup cremini mushrooms* diced in small chunks
½ cup diced onion
1/2 teaspoon thyme
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
1 cup turkey broth
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 cup frozen vegetable mix (peas, green beans, carrots, corn)
1/2 cup crushed butter crackers
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 9×13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Cook pasta according to package and drain when finished.
Place the cooked, diced turkey in a large bowl. Season the turkey with seasoned salt. Mix and set aside.
Add 2 tablespoons butter to a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms, onions and thyme. Cook about 3 minutes or until mushrooms are slightly softened. Place in a bowl with turkey.
In the same skillet, add 3 tablespoons of butter. Whisk in flour then whisk in milk and turkey broth. Let simmer for 3-4 minutes to thicken. Stir in ½ cup of parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir together pasta, vegetables, mushroom mixture, turkey and cheese sauce. Place in the prepared baking dish and top with remaining cheese and crushed butter crackers.
Bake until top is golden brown about 17-20 minutes. (If the pasta is cold, this may take up to 30 minutes to heat through.)
Serve warm.
