This recipe is not only a classic, but it's a great way to use up leftover turkey. Plus, you can easily substitute 2 cans of tuna to make a tuna noodle casserole. - Tara

 

 

INGREDIENTS

 

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1¼ cups milk
  • 1½ cups chicken broth
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper

Directions

 

  1. Whisk together butter, flour, milk, and chicken broth in a 2.5-quart temp-tations® baking dish. Microwave on high for 6 minutes, stirring every two minutes. Keep an eye on mixture to make sure it doesn't boil over in microwave.
  2. Stir in salt, pepper, garlic powder, parmesan cheese, and Swiss cheese until combined and melted. Stir in egg noodles, turkey, mushrooms, and peas.
  3. Top with breadcrumbs and bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 25-30 minutes, until top begins to brown and casserole is bubbling.
