Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 12 oz Spaghetti (cooked)
  • 1 Green Pepper (chopped)
  • 2 lbs Turkey (chopped or shredded)
  • 10 1/2 oz Cream of Mushroom Soup (1 can)
  • 10 1/2 oz Cream of Chicken Soup (1 can)
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 2 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese (grated)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the casserole.
  2. Mix Soups and Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, milk, chopped green pepper, and shredded turkey. Stir the mixture thoroughly until all components are well blended.
  3. Add Cooked Spaghetti: Incorporate the cooked spaghetti noodles into the soup and turkey mixture, stirring until everything is evenly combined.
  4. Assemble the Casserole: Transfer the combined mixture into a 13×9 inch baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the grated sharp cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
  5. Cover and Bake: Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil to retain moisture. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, indicating the casserole is heated through.

Notes

  • This recipe is ideal for using leftover holiday turkey, offering a creamy and flavorful way to reinvent your meal.
  • Be sure to cover tightly with foil to prevent the cheese from over-browning during baking.
  • Feel free to substitute other cheeses if you prefer a milder or different flavor profile.
  • You can add mushrooms or other vegetables to increase the dish’s nutrition and texture.
  • Let the casserole rest for a few minutes after baking to make serving easier and to let flavors meld.
