Looking for this yummy recipe from Morrisons

Hi Carol,

I do have the Tetrazzini recipe. See below. Note that it is a cafeteria food service recipe for 65 portions, so it will have to be adjusted for home use. I can't do that for you, sorry. Good luck with it. At least it gives you the ingredients and preparation method, if not the exact quantities for  5 or 6 servings.
