Turkey Pasta Casserole Recipe • Great for Leftovers! | Club Foody

 

At home, Thanksgiving is a big deal! It doesn’t matter if we have people over or if it’s just the two of us, I’ll go ahead and buy a big bird so I can have a mountain of leftover meat. As much as many out there try to avoid having any, I like to reuse it so I can make my favorite dishes like Turkey Noodle Soup, Pot Pies, Turkey à la King, Turkey Chili Tex-Mex Style, Turkey Croquettes, Turkey Zucchini Boats, etc.
 
I have a couple pasta dishes using this particular protein like Turkey Tetrazzini and this featured one… Turkey Pasta Casserole! This savory recipe is perfect for the fall season! It’s hearty and quite easy to make. Besides using cooked turkey, there are other great ingredients that really set this dish apart like pesto, Italian seasoning, peas, cheese, etc.
 
This is an uncomplicated meal to serve to your family. This Turkey Pasta Casserole is awesome to make when there’s a pile of leftover turkey sitting in your fridge as it uses 3 cups. With either penne or rigatoni, this is an incredible comfort food your family will enjoy.
 
Let’s talk about pasta… Here’s a little trick when the cooked pasta is done before using it for a recipe. After draining it, pour on a little bit of olive oil and gently toss. Repeat until the noodles are well coated to prevent them from sticking.
 
Don’t be afraid to cook a big turkey for Thanksgiving and/or Christmas because there are so many great recipes to use up your leftovers like this amazing savory Turkey Pasta Casserole! It’s a flavorful recipe to add to your folder and also a delicious change from what’s left in your fridge from that festive dinner…
Bon Appétit!
