This casserole strikes a nostalgic note for anyone who has enjoyed its namesake. "I chose this particular recipe because I survived my senior year in college 45 years ago thanks to Stouffers Turkey Tetrazzini," home cook Lynne says. "Made this for a pot luck dinner and it was a big hit! I enjoyed the addition of the sherry. Gave it an added boost in flavor."

"Great recipe, although I did kick it up a notch and added a bay leaf, basil, and thyme to the onions and celery. I also added about a quarter cup of white wine before putting it in the oven," Bonnie Yocus says. Other reviewers have made the dish their own with additions like sharp Cheddar, potato chips in place of bread crumbs, or sherry.

"The Parmesan cheese melted and formed a flavorful crust, keeping the spaghetti moist and tender," Sue Olsson says. Though the recipe calls for soy milk, reviewers report that skim milk works here, too.

"We loved this. I added peas for color, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly as written," Pam Ziegler Lutz says. "This was a great way to use up some of my leftover turkey without it seeming like 'leftovers for dinner.' I will definitely make this again!"
