My mother developed this turkey casserole recipe years ago. The flavor, cheese and splash of sherry make it elegant enough to serve at a dinner party. —Peggy Kroupa, Leawood, Kansas

Ingredients

  • 1 pound uncooked spaghetti
  • 1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
