Turkey Tetrazzini

I must admit, I am a sucker for pasta coated in creamy goodness especially if mushrooms are involved. I just can’t resist it. Today, this Turkey Tetrazzini is one of those recipes that called my name. Come on Laura, come make this deliciously creamy pasta dish! So I answered the call and am so glad I did.
It is the new year and people are wanting healthy goodness, but we are all still entitled to an occasional splurge of pure comfort. This is it! On those days you get a hankering for some down right creamy nourishment, make this dish. If you don’t have turkey then go for chicken. Those rotisserie ones from the store would be magnificent.
