Kay's Best Ever Turkey Casserole

My husband liked this casserole so much that he said it was the best turkey casserole I ever made. 
Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • Dash pepper
  • Dash cayenne
  • 1 can 10.5-ounce cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 soup can milk
  • 2 cups cubed cooked turkey
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 quarts boiling water
  • 8-ounces ( 6 to 6 1/2 cups) wide egg noodles
  • Grated Parmesan cheese
  • Paprika (optional)

Directions
  • Sauté chopped onion in butter until crisp-tender.  Blend in seasonings; add 1 can cream of mushroom soup and 1 soup can of milk.  Bring to a boil stirring constantly.  Continue to cook and stir on simmer for 1 minute.  Add cooked turkey.
  • Meanwhile, add 1 teaspoon salt to rapidly boiling water.  Gradually add noodles so that water continues to boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, 5 to 6 minutes.  Drain in colander. Combine noodles with sauce in 2-quart casserole; top with Parmesan cheese and paprika (optional).  Bake at 350ºF. about 20 to 25 minutes or until bubbling and browned.
