Turkey a la King



While I was cleaning up after Thanksgiving and commencing with Christmas decorating, you all were posting great dishes with leftover turkey.  I just wish I had seen them before all of our leftover turkey was consumed. 

One is Linda’s @My Kind of Cookinglayered turkey enchiladas.  I have made her awesome green chile chicken pasta.  She revamped it using turkey and tortillas so I know how delicious this would be.  Yum!

Another is Stephen’s @The Obsessive Chef :  a great turkey noodle soup flavored with celery, carrots and mushrooms.  It makes for a perfect meal and sounds and looks very appetizing to me! 

These are both must-tries the next time we have turkey!

Here’s what I did with our leftover turkey ~ turkey a la king.  Bill and I both enjoy this and I always make it a day or 2 after Thanksgiving.  This recipe is a repost from last year when I first started blogging with omitting the pimentos and adding Hungarian sweet paprika.  As I said before, it’s a creamy dish fit for a king!
