Ingredients

  • 8 oz egg noodles cooked according to package instructions
  • 2 cups cooked turkey shredded or chopped
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup 10.5 oz
  • 1 cup milk

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For a creamier texture, add an extra 1/4 cup of milk to the mixture
• Avoid overcooking the noodles before mixing to prevent them from becoming mushy in the casserole
• Serve with a side salad for a complete meal
Food Safety:
• Ensure turkey is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before using in the casserole
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 3-4 days
