Notes

Storage
Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keep the noodles, rice and stroganoff separate. The cream can cause the noddles to break down and get soggy. 
This meal is almost better the next day. The sauce will get even thicker when chilled and reheated. 
Does not freeze well.
Variations
Chicken Stroganoff: This recipe can easily be adapted to a chicken stroganoff. Just use leftover rotisserie or grilled chicken in place of the turkey. Substitute the turkey broth for chicken broth. 
Ground Turkey Stroganoff: This recipe can be made with ground turkey instead. Cook the turkey right after the onions. Once the turkey is fully cooked add in the mushrooms and then follow the rest of the recipe as it is written. 
Beef Stroganoff: This version is similar to the ground turkey. Just use ground beef and beef stock in place of the turkey. Cook the beef just after the onions. Once beef is fully cooked follow the recipe as written.
