It feels soooo good to be back to blogging this week. (Can you tell? I’ve written three posts, three days in a row!) With Easter coming up this weekend and some turkey breakfast sausage taking up space in my freezer, I figure this #TurkeyTuesday is the perfect time to showcase a new recipe that’s ideal for […] Read more…
Turkey Tuesday: Pasta Fagioli with Turkey Sausage
I love soup. Oddly, though, this has not always been the case. Years ago, I rarely made soup at home, unless it was chili – and even then, Teacher Man is the true chili maker in our house. But somehow as I’ve gotten older and found myself enjoying being in the kitchen again (now that […] Read more…
Turkey Tuesday: Easy Turkey-Mex Rice
Turkey Tuesday is back after a week’s hiatus – self-imposed because last week at work was absolutely insane. As in crazy-busy-swamped.

I’ll be meeting with others in the turkey industry to continue plans on some exciting new ways to promote the consumption of more turkey all year long. But first … Slow Cooker Buffalo […] Read more…
Turkey Tuesday: Turkey Salad Sandwiches
Here’s why this classic, pretty simple Turkey Salad Sandwich recipe is going to be your go-to from now on: I have always loved a really good chicken salad sandwich, but I’m also super picky. (Um, yes, as much as I hate to admit it, there is likely a reason my son, Joe, is quite particular […] Read more…
Turkey Tuesday: Hashbrown Turkey Ham Quiche
This week’s Turkey Tuesday recipe post is Hashbrown Turkey Ham Quiche – one of my family’s favorites. This all ties into my one of my blogging goals for 2015, which is to more regularly blog great recipes that use turkey. There is an excellent variety of turkey products available now in most supermarkets, so I […] Read more…
