This was awesome. I used week old pitiful turkey leftovers and made an amazing meal. Skipped the mushroom because I didn't have them; used jarred roasted red pepper and fresh green pepper. The family thought the potato chips were weird, I think they are fun and different. Will probably use buttered bread crumbs when I'm trying to use up the turkey next year.

Didn't have fresh herbs on hand so I used 1/4 teaspoon dry thyme leaves and 1 teaspoon dry parsley; instead of chopped red bell peppers, I stirred in almost a whole bag of thawed baby peas when I combined the noodles and turkey with the sauce, and instead of potato chips I topped it with seasoned bread crumbs instead of potato chips.

Again, I wasn't as absolutely wowed by it as everyone else who ate it, but will make it again because everyone seemed to love it so much.

Common ingredients that make for a wonderful dish. Added a couple of carrots, a little celery, a few green beans, and some frozen peas for a one dish complete meal.
Served it to 5 people besides myself and everyone loved it. A heck of a lot better than the "can of soup" stuff.
It will go into my "make again" recipe file. Thanks again Emeril. You are a class act and so is your cooking and recipes.

I've wanted to try this recipe for a long time and finally I did. It was a great way to use the leftover turkey from Thanksgiving. The only substitution that I made was to use fat free half-and-half. There was a substantial amount of work involved in chopping but the result was very tasty. This is a great alternative to turkey pot pie for using leftovers.

I really liked this recipe. The only thing I changed was the noodles. I used medium size instead of wide noodles. I loved the flavor, and it seemed a lighter version of the usual recipes out there. Which is why my husband didn't like it. He thought it needed more cheese. I would definitely make this recipe again.

I thought this recipe was pretty good, but my boyfriend LOVED it. I cut down on the calories a little by using Smart Balance margarine and less of it, milk instead of cream and pam instead of buttering the dish. I also used a combination of panko and seasoned bread crumbs instead of the potato chips. We like our food spicy and I was afraid it was going to be too bland after I mixed everything together so I quickly added some crushed red pepper and more thyme right before I added the bread crumbs. I think the extra spices made a big difference. I served it with some steamed broccoli. I think I might try using roasted red pepper next time I make this.

I felt the time between steps and time in the oven was too long. I just used my judgement and cut it down. Next time I think I will combine the first three steps and saute all the vegetables, garlic and mushrooms at once. I took it out of the oven once I saw it was bubbling and that was only about 15 minutes.

Someone else said it was dry... I think that may have been too many noodles. I almost made this mistake as well. I think the recipe calls for 12 oz. of pasta and our bag was 16 oz. You definitely want it to be pretty liquidy when it goes in the oven.

We had never had tetrazinni before and are normally pretty keen on Emeril's recipes, but this was just OK for us, the time and the calories in our opinion are not worth the taste. We will eat the leftovers but won't be making it again. Sorry Emeril.

This recipe is excellent. It's not difficult, but does take a little time and work - but the results are worth it. I was afraid the recipe would make too much, so I cut it in half -- won't do that again! My hubby and I ate nearly the entire half recipe by ourselves! Thinking of making it again today (still have leftover T-giving turkey and freezing it for a quick-prep weeknight dinner. Could serve with tossed salad or steamed or roasted broccoli, asparagus, etc. if desired. Don't be afraid to try this recipe -- you won't be disappointed.

This casserole is the first one I have ever made or eaten that I would serve to my customers. I used dry Marsella wine and dark roasted turkey stock.My family raved about it. Thank you for shareing Chef Emerill, Chef Chas from Ohio
