Gluten-Free Creamy Turkey Tetrazzini image

I made this up tonight, since we can't have wheat in our diet, and I wanted to leave out as much dairy as possible. It tastes exactly like my usual tetrazzini, and has a great creamy texture and great flavor. You probably won't even notice the difference! The liquid measures are a guess, since I didn't get an exact volume. You can sub chicken, too, if you like.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 -3 cups cooked turkey, cut up
8 ounces brown rice or 8 ounces regular rice spaghetti
3 tablespoons non-hydrogenated margarine or 3 tablespoons butter
1 1/4 cups rice milk
1 1/4 cups no-salt-added chicken broth or 1 1/4 cups low sodium chicken broth
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons chickpea flour (garbanzo)
1 tablespoon fine rice flour
1 teaspoon potato starch
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/8 teaspoon dill
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook spaghetti until firm al dente.
  • Rinse in cold water immediately to remove excess starch (trust me, you need to do this).
  • Set aside.
  • Spray a nonstick pan with cooking spray, and place over medium-high heat.
  • Saute mushrooms and garlic powder until nicely browned, and place in the bottom of a 3 qt square casserole dish.
  • Put spaghetti in an even layer over the mushrooms.
  • Put turkey in a layer over the spaghetti.
  • Make the sauce:.
  • Melt margarine over medium heat, and whisk in the flours.
  • Dissolve the potato starch in either the milk or the broth.
  • Whisk the milk and broth into the margarine mixture, and bring to a boil.
  • Stir until thickened.
  • Pour over all.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, until nice and bubbly!
  • The rice pasta may be a bit mushy, but it still tastes really good. If you undercook the pasta a little bit, it might help.
