Ingredients

Tetrazzini is an American dish named for an Italian opera singer, and it has exactly the characteristics you might imagine such a dish to have. This variation uses evaporated skim milk to lighten the sauce without losing the richness of heavier cream sauces.
1 Tbsp. canola oil
2 cups sliced mushrooms
2 Tbsp. flour
1 tsp. paprika
2 cups evaporated skim milk
1/4 cup grated, low-fat Swiss cheese
1/2 cup sliced scallions
1/4 cup diced red pepper
1/2 cup diced cooked turkey
1 lb. thin spaghetti, cooked
1 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and saute until soft (5-6 minutes).
3. Sprinkle the flour and paprika over the mushrooms. Add the milk and stir until thickened (2-3 minutes).
4. Stir in the remaining ingredients except for the Parmesan. Pour the mixture into an 8"x8" baking dish.
5. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Bake until heated through (20-25 minutes).
