This casserole is truly a “one-dish wonder” with pasta, meat and vegetables.
8 oz. spaghetti
1 medium onion, chopped
¼ cup margarine or butter
¼ cup flour
1 ½ tsp. salt
1 tsp. instant chicken bouillon (optional)
Dash pepper
2 ½ cups milk
2 cups diced, cooked turkey (Trader Joe’s sells a nice cooked turkey breast) or chicken
1 10 oz. package frozen chopped spinach (fresh is fine too), cooked and drained
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
Cook spaghetti according to directions and drain in colander and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Meanwhile, melt butter in saucepan over medium heat and cook onion until soft. Stir in flour, salt, instant bouillon and pepper. Gradually add milk; cook, stirring constantly until sauce boils for 1 minute.
Combine with turkey and spaghetti in a large bowl. Turn half of the mixture into a greased 2 ½ quart casserole dish. Top with half the spinach and cheese. Repeat another layer with cheese on top.
Bake in 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until bubbly.
Makes 4 servings.

How long can this be kept after baking? I am going camping & this would be wonderful for dinner.
