Today was one of those "get up and go" kind of days. It was beautiful outside, especially when it warmed up about 10am this morning. After a 50-minute walk in my neighborhood, I came home, had breakfast, and cleaned my house from top to bottom. I had done my shopping at Macy's last Thursday evening, so I didn't need to do any more shopping during the "Super Weekend Sale." I went to Trader Joe's and purchased the rest of my ingredients for a pasta dish. I have lots of leftover turkey meat from a turkey I baked last week. The dish is very simple and takes about 30 minutes to make. I've made it so many times, I didn't bother with the recipe and just eye-balled everything and threw in a few extra ingredients. It's basically fettuccine and broccoli with cream of mushroom soup and a few seasonings.
Fettuccine with Turkey
Boil 8 ounces of fettuccine noodles according to package directions. Add broccoli the last six minutes of cooking time. Drain and set aside. Heat 1 tbsp. of butter and 1 tbsp. olive oil in a saute pan, then saute two cloves of chopped garlic and two cups of cooked turkey. Add one 10 3/4 can of cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, and 1/4 to 1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper and salt to taste. Stir together and heat thoroughly. Add pasta and broccoli and serve.
