Notes

STORE leftover turkey tetrazzini in an airtight container in the fridge for about 3 days.
Freeze the entire casserole. Cool completely and cover it with heavy-duty foil. Freeze for up to 4 months. For a freezer meal, cook noodles al dente.
  • Thaw in the fridge for 24 hours before baking it. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35 minutes or so, until the edges are bubbling and it's heated through.
  • Bake it from frozen. Leave it covered with tinfoil and add an extra 45 minutes or so to the bake time. Uncover for the last 15 minutes of baking.
