There’s no doubt about it, turkey tetrazzini is the ultimate Thanksgiving leftover food. It’s creamy and cheesy, and sure to get you out of your post-holiday slump. Reviewer ISHKABIBBLEMOM says, “This is a good comfort food…super easy to put together. Just what I needed to use up my turkey leftovers but it made a LOT. I’d advise baking it in a 9×13 baking dish or dividing it between two smaller dishes and freezing one for later.”

“This delicious casserole is for leftover leftovers. I don’t know about you, but after a few days of eating Thanksgiving leftovers, no matter how tasty they originally were, I want something that makes me forget there’s even turkey in it,” says Chef John. “Since ingredients like garam masala, spicy cheese, and peppers aren’t typically used in the meal, they work wonderfully here to disguise the last of a holiday bird.”
