Why Quick Leftover Turkey Tetrazzini is my favorite use of Thanksgiving leftovers..
..because it completely transforms the flavors that you just had from Thanksgiving into something that tastes completely new! It’s a creamy noodle casserole dish that tastes nothing like Thanksgiving when you can’t imagine eating anymore of that stuff. Another great reason is because it will feed your whole family dinner in very little time when slaving away in the kitchen is the last thing you’d want to do the days after the big cooking holiday.
