8 oz pkg medium egg noodles, uncooked
10 oz pkg frozen broccoli spears, cooked
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
2 cup milk
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Cook half the noodles according to package directions, reserving the rest for another recipe; drain and set aside. Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat; blend in the flour, salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and bubbly. Gradually add milk, stirring until thickened. Remove from heat and add cheese; stir until melted. Dice broccoli stems, leaving the florets intact. In a lightly greased 8x8 inch baking pan, arrange noodles, broccoli stems and turkey; pour cheese sauce over top. Lightly press florets into cheese layer; sprinkle with almonds. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
