Turkey Tetrazinni

This recipe is an old family favorite that my Grandmother Allen has handed down. Very versatile and yummy! I love the crunch of the almonds and the creaminess of the cheese. So good!

1 quart turkey or chicken broth
2 cups elbow macaroni
2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (or more, I really like bacon, so I sometimes will add more)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 lb. shredded American Cheese (you can use Velveeta)
1/4 cup pimentos
1/2 cup toasted blanched almonds
1 3/4 cup cooked peas (or 1 can of peas, drained)
2 cups turkey, cooked and shredded
salt and pepper to taste

Boil macaroni in broth until tender. Drain noodles but reserve broth to moisten as needed. Mix all ingredients together and heat through, using broth as needed to moisten. MMM MMMM good!
