- Sprinkle remaining ¼ cup of Parmesan and slivered almonds on top. Bake, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is hot and the nuts are lightly toasted.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 13 x 9 baking dish (or another similar shallow 2 ½ quart baking dish) with nonstick spray. Cook the spaghetti according to package directions. Drain.

Stir in the sage, broth and milk and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently for about 4 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Add the cooked mushrooms and onions, drained pasta, turkey, ½ cup parsley and Parmesan (if your pan is not big enough you can mix it al together in a large mixing bowl). Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle with the bread crumb mixture.

JULIE'S TURKEY TETRAZZINI
I didn't create this recipe but it's in my recipe box so it probably came from my mom. I use milk because I never have half-&-half. I have also made without the sherry but don't advise it even though it still tastes good.
