Paleo Family Dinners: Turkey Tetrazzini


Now, what to do with all the turkey leftovers?  Turkey Tetrazzini?  But how do I make that Paleo?  Well, after looking at a few regular recipes online I decided to give it a shot.  Here is what I did:

2 zucchinis zoodled with a julienne peeler
2 cups leftover chopped turkey
1 cup turkey drippings
1/4 cup Paleo mayo
2 eggs
s & p

Zoodle the zucchinis and set aside in large bow.  Add chopped turkey to zoodles.  Mix remaining ingredients together in separate bowl and then pour over zoodles and turkey and mix thouroughly.  Pour into in 9 x 13 casserole dish and bake for 30 min.

I would have to give this recipe 4 out of 5 stars. It was easy to put together and ready rather quickly.  The zoodles were tender but not soggy.  The "sauce" had a little different texture than a normal tetrazzini sauce, but I guess that is to be expected.  Of course, it would be better with some crumbled bacon in it and possibly even some minced roasted bell peppers.  Everyone (all 4 kids and hubby) ate it well and did not complain.  I'll call that good.
