Ingredients
- 8 ounces Spaghetti
- cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
- 3 cups Sliced Fresh Mushrooms
- 1 small onion minced
- 2 ribs celery minced
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 14.5 ounces canned chicken broth
- 3 ounces cream cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ cup diced pimiento
- 2 cups chopped cooked turkey or chicken
- ½ cup chopped Italian parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions. Set aside.
- Coat a large pan with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. Add butter or margarine. When melted, add mushrooms, onion and celery. Cook, stirring frequently until tender.
- Whisk together the flour and milk until smooth.
- Add the flour-milk mixture along with the chicken broth, salt and pepper to the sautéed vegetables. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from the heat and add cream cheese, stirring until melted. Stir in half the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, pimiento, turkey, spaghetti and parsley.
- Spoon the mixture into a shallow baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining Parmesan cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
Notes
- Storing: Leftovers can be stored tightly covered in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
- Freezing: Because of the cream sauce, I can’t recommend freezing. It's very likely that the sauce would break and the result wouldn't be great.
- Reheating: Reheat in the microwave in one-minute increments, stirring in between to avoid drying out or burning the pasta.
