Steps:
- Place all ingredients except spaghetti, parmesan, water and cornstarch into crock pot; stir.
- Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
- Serve over cooked spaghetti; sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
- Prior to serving, you'll probably want to thicken this a little more. Mix lukewarm water and cornstarch in a bowl until corn starch is dissolved. Add to crock pot mixture. Stir until thickened. If it it not thick enough you may repeat this step.
Tips:
- Use a quality turkey: Opt for a fresh or frozen whole turkey or turkey breast with no added salt or flavorings.
- Cook the turkey thoroughly: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Make the sauce creamy and flavorful: Use a combination of butter, flour, milk, and seasonings to create a rich and creamy sauce. Add a splash of white wine or chicken broth for extra flavor.
- Use a variety of mushrooms: Feel free to mix and match different types of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, or oyster mushrooms, for a more complex flavor and texture.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, but be careful not to overcook it, as it will continue to cook in the casserole.
- Add a crispy topping: Before baking, sprinkle some breadcrumbs or crushed crackers on top of the casserole for a golden brown and crunchy topping.
- Let it rest before serving: Once the casserole is baked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
