Add nutmeg, milk and can (or jar) of turkey (or chicken) gravy. Cook, stirring occasionally, until well blended and thickened. Taste and add wine, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste. Stir in cooked vegetables.
5. Toss hot cooked noodles with a little butter or olive oil & parmesan cheese (or Italian cheese blend). Pile into baking dish. Top pasta with cubed poultry. Pour sauce over all and sprinkle with Italian cheese.
