Leftover turkey combines with penne and cheeses to make a classic comfort food. The pasta bake works with chicken, shrimp or beef, too.
Ingredients:
8 ounces uncooked penne
1 small onion, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened and cubed
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup 2% milk
1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
2 cups cubed cooked turkey breast
topping:
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
3 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions:
1. Cook penne according to package directions. Drain; set aside.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute the onion in butter until tender. Add garlic; cook 2 minutes longer. Add the soup, cream cheese, cream and milk; cook and stir just until cream cheese is melted. Stir in the mushrooms, cheeses and spices; cook just until cheeses are melted. Add turkey and penne; heat through.
3. Transfer to a greased 2-1/2 qt. baking dish. In a small bowl, combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over pasta mixture. Cover and bake at 350° for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake 10-15 minutes longer or until bubbly and golden brown. Yield: 6 servings.
