I thought since y'alls going to have leftover turkey, you might like this recipe. It used to be an old favourite of mine - and I dearly missed "creamy" meals. I simply substituted leftover gravy for milk (Thanks, Mom for that tip!) and soy parmesan for regular and I was back in business!!!
1/4 cup margarine (or 2 tbsp)
1/4 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tbsp parsley
1 cup leftover gravy (if you don't have any, make an instant fat free kind)
1 cup vegetable or chicken broth
2 tbsp sherry (optional)
2 - 4 cups leftover turkey
4 oz. uncooked noodles, like lingine
1 cup or so frozen peas
1 cup mushrooms, optional.
1/4 cup soy parmesan cheese (optional)
Cook noodles according to directions on package.
In a large microwaveable safe bowl, add margarine. Turn on for a few seconds till it melts. Add flour, salt, pepper and parsley. Stir till smooth. Slowly add chicken broth, stirring until smooth. Add leftover gravy. Microwave on medium high for 6 to 8 minutes stirring twice, until thickened. Add leftover turkey, mushrooms, parmesan and cooked noodles. Microwave about 12 - 14 minutes on medium, until bubbly. Add frozen peas and stir well. Let set 5 minutes and serve!!!

This sounds YUMMY! I actually was planning to make a turkey tetrazzini today, using a new recipe from The Barefoot Contessa (Network TV). She uses a lot of cream, and I was just gonna substitute soy milk. But I like the idea of the turkey gravy instead. Thanks Mom!

Hain Vegan Gravy Mix I've seen this in many stores. I've tried the brown gravy, it was really good.

I've always used the traditional leftover gravy (we always syphen off the fat).
Any fat free turkey gravy mix should be fine.
You can also substitute the broth for soy milk.
