Have Any Leftover Turkey?


Turkey Tetrazzini

1/2 cup butter
2 cups fresh sliced mushrooms (optional)
2 Tbsp. flour
2 cups chicken broth
3/4 cup Half and Half
Salt and pepper to taste
3 Tbsp. dry sherry
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
3 cups cooked turkey, cut into bit sized pieces
7 oz. cooked spaghetti
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Melt butter in large pan.
Add flour and, while stirring slowly, stir in chicken broth.
Cook over medium heat while stirring until mixture starts to thicken.
Remove from heat and add Half and Half, sherry, parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
Add turkey and cooked spaghetti and mix well.
Pour mixture into an ungreased 13 x 9 inch baking dish and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes.


Mashed Potato Pancakes

3 Tbsp. finely chopped onion
1/3 cup butter
4 cups cooked mashed potatoes
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup flour

Cook onion in pan in about half of the butter until onion is translucent.
Remove onion from pan with a slotted spoon, allowing the melted butter and pan drippings to remain in the pan.
Combine onion, mashed potatoes and eggs.
Sprinkle with flour.
Add remaining butter to pan and heat to medium/high heat.
Make pancakes out of the potato mixture and cook about 5 minutes each side until browned.

I'm busted!

The original recipe called for
"2 cups fresh sliced mushrooms"
and I was trying to take them out both because I don't like them and for Sweet, who gave them up.

mushrooms are fungus, and don't belong on food.

IMO.
