OVEN BAKED TURKEY CROQUETTES

THICK CREAM SAUCE:

4 tbsp. butter
1/3 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. paprika
1 c. milk

Melt butter. Add flour and seasoning; blend. Add the milk slowly, stirring constantly. Cook, stirring until mixture is very thick. Cool (can be stored for several days in refrigerator).

CROQUETTES:

2 c. chopped cooked leftover turkey
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. celery salt
1/2 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. minced parsley
1 c. thick cream sauce
1 c. fine bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten with 1 tbsp. water
1/4 c. butter

Mix ingredients in order given except crumbs and egg. Shape into 6 to 8 croquettes. Chill. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Put shallow baking with butter into oven to heat. When butter is hot, dip croquette into crumbs, egg and again in crumbs. Then place in pan, rolling to coat all sides with butter. Bake for about 30 minutes or until brown and crisp. Makes 6-8 servings. Serve with celery pimento and cream cheese.

CELERY PIMENTO CREAM SAUCE:

To 2 cups medium cream sauce, add 1/4 cup chopped pimento and 1/2 cup cooked celery. Add 2 teaspoons minced parsley. This is very good.

Good and easy to make. Very flavorful and a nice crispy crust. Like a meatball side dish. We made with sauteed spinach and potato soup. Great combo!

The cream sauce scared me, as I'm not that good with stuff where you mix the warm stuff in with milk and such, but it was easy and worked out well!

I put in extra chopped turkey to use all the cream sauce, probably because I didn't chill it so I was trying to take some of the stickiness off it. I also didn't do the butter/oven thing but just sprayed them with olive oil before I baked them.

They were still delicious and I will make them again! I doubled the recipe too, and made 25 patties. That's tonight's dinner AND 4 more dinners in the freezer! Woot!
