Turkey Lasagne
I make this lasagne recipe with leftover turkey when we have a roast. You can add a little mustard powder to the white sauce for a touch of spice.

Next, place a layer of the turkey mixture, followed by sauce and then 1/2 cup of the grated mozzarella cheese. Repeat layering process with lasagne, turkey mixture and sauce. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese.

This was excellent! I also added some peas , carrots and a little spinich. I also tripled the white sauce for the recipe and even made extra after it was finished to pour over top. That may have been because I used more vegetables & turkey than the recipe called for. Thanks for a great new way to use up all of that leftover turkey! - 30 Apr 2005 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This turned out pretty well. I thought the sauce was rather bland by itself so I added parmesan cheese to it and it was much better. - 26 Feb 2007 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This turned out great. I ended up adding extra turkey and broccoli and I doubled the white sauce to compensate. I also used regular whole wheat lasagna noodles and boiled them beforehand. Other reviews complained about the white sauce being too bland but if you taste it as you're making it, it shouldn't be a problem. I just kept adding salt and pepper and some garlic powder until I got it just right! - 26 Mar 2008 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
