Leftovers a la Highlands

November 25, 2012

  1. At Highlands, every Sunday is Thanksgiving dinner. And that means that every most weeks, we have turkey leftovers. Much to my delight, that means one thing. Turkey Tetrazini.
    We here in the Bachmann household devoured our turkey, but I’m seriously considering roasting another bird so that we can enjoy Lois Craig’s delicious recipe.
    Turkey Tetrazini (Camp Highlands style)
    6 oz. spaghetti, broken in half
    chicken broth for cooking spaghetti
    1 can cream of mushroom soup
    1 cup milk
    1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
    2/3 cup mayonnaise
    2 cup cooked turkey (or chicken), diced or chopped
    1 (2-oz.) can mushrooms, drained
    2 tablespoons diced pimento
    3 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan)
    Cook spaghetti in broth; drain. Mix the soup, mayonnaise, and milk until well blended. Add spaghetti, celery, mushrooms, pimento, chicken, and half of the cheese. Pour into casserole dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake in a 350° oven for 45 minutes.
