Turkey a la King

Not sure of the origins of the name, but a great leftover meal:

  • Thick roux with mushrooms

    Thick roux with mushrooms

    ¼ cup butter

  • 1 green pepper, chopped  (or ¼ cup peas, but I don’t like them much)
  • 8 mushrooms, sliced
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 2 ½ cups cooked turkey, chopped
  • dash onion powder
  • dash pepper
  1. Melt butter; add vegetables. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Remove vegetables with slotted spoon.
  2. Add flour to butter, cooking and stirring to thicken. Slowly add milk and cream of mushroom soup, stirring to form a roux.
  3. Add turkey, vegetables and seasonings to taste. Heat through and serve on a base of noodles or toast.

Serves 6.
