One Pot Turkey Noodle Casserole

One Pot Turkey Noodle Casserole is a quick and easy recipe made with leftover turkey, pasta and no cream soup! Comfort food in less than 30 minutes!

Its been a little while since I made a one pot dinner recipe. But, after I posted my Instant Pot Turkey Noodle Casserole, a few of you wrote to ask for an easy turkey casserole made on the stove. So, here it is — One Pot Turkey Noodle Casserole made with leftover turkey!

I guess you can never have too many easy leftover turkey recipes, especially after Thanksgiving. And as much as I love my Instant Pot, it’s just as easy to make this leftover turkey casserole on the stove. So really, do whatever works best for you.

This turkey noodle casserole is made with just a few simple ingredients — you probably have most of them in your pantry. You can also add your favorite seasonings or different pasta or cheese.

The goal is to use what you have and use up leftovers in a quick and easy dinner. After all, you probably want a break from cooking after the holidays!

How to make leftover turkey casserole

Just add your leftover turkey to a pot or skillet. Then, add some noodles, broth or water, and throw in some seasonings and frozen veggies. I used egg noodles in this casserole, but you can add your favorite pasta.

When I make pasta in the pressure cooker, I use a whole box, but you need less if you’re using a skillet or small pot. If you have turkey broth, use it, but you can also use chicken broth or water.

Egg noodles cook fast, so when they’re getting soft, stir in some cream, and let everything hang out for a little bit. The liquid will start to thicken, and then, you can add some cheese. I used a combo of Parmesan and mozzarella, but  you can use your favorite here — and add more if  you want!

I added a little fresh parsley to brighten the casserole up, but it’s optional. And, that’s all there is to it! My family said this turkey noodle casserole is one of the best leftover turkey recipes ever — no matter how you make it!
