    December 22, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    This Creamy Parmesan and Turkey Penne recipe, my friends, is a keeper and you will be forever grateful that I shared it with you. Obviously I hope you try many of my turkey recipes on this blog, but if you pick only one or two to get you started, please…

    Spicy Turkey Sloppy Joes

    December 15, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Spicy turkey sloppy joes or spicy turkey barbecues?  Which team are you on? I say barbecues more – but then I’ll slip in a sloppy joe reference for no reason, so I guess I’m conflicted. 😉 I’m not conflicted on how delicious and flavorful this particular recipe from Jennie-O Turkey…

    Weekend Snaps | Thankful

    November 29, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Hello friends! How was your Thanksgiving weekend? As is the case every year, ours went way too fast, and now Joe and I find ourselves on the couch, lamenting that our little break is over. I’m not quite sure I’m ready for Monday – this week is going to be…

    Turkey Tortilla Soup

    November 24, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

      Turkey leftovers (for use in Turkey Tortilla Soup)! I’m just going to leave those two lovely words right there for you. It’s Thanksgiving week and I can’t wait for the big day! This year, the holiday takes on special meaning for Minnesota’s turkey farmers, who experienced a horrific avian…

    Roasting a Turkey in a Bag

    November 17, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I’ve worked a good long time for Minnesota’s turkey farmers (20 years!), and over those years I’ve learned about roasting a whole turkey from some of the best. I’ve brined, I’ve deep fried, I’ve basted. It seems I’ve tried most methods except for smoking, and I really don’t think I’ve…

    Turkey Ham and Cheesy Potato Hotdish

    October 27, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    I have said this before and it bears repeating: I am the queen of comfort food. (This is why Turkey Ham and Cheesy Potato Hotdish is calling my name.) I love bread, pasta, cheese, potatoes, creamy soups, chili, and the venerable hotdish (also known as casserole if you live outside…

    Best Ever Turkey Meatloaf

    October 13, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Honest truth – I was thinking I wouldn’t have time to do a Turkey Tuesday post this week. I wasn’t prepared, I didn’t have a recipe in mind, I wasn’t even sure I had ingredients on hand. (And certainly creating the Best Ever Turkey Meatloaf wasn’t in the cards.) In…

    Three Cheese Stuffed Shells with Turkey Sausage Meat Sauce

    October 6, 2015 - By ldurben@charter.net

    Here’s my deal with Turkey Tuesday. I want to show you some unexpected ways to switch to turkey in recipes that are not only delicious but also relatively easy to make and (generally) family friendly. Take The Pioneer Woman’s Three-Cheese Stuffed Shells with Meaty Tomato Sauce. I switched out the…
