I generally buy a whole turkey every other week or so, break it down and make quite a few meals out of it. Tomorrow I will get you started on the process of breaking down an entire turkey and preparing it for meals throughout the week. The recipes I use each time tend to vary with what I have on hand and what is in season, but they usually follow the same basic pattern:
-Sunday-style roast with standard fixins: potatoes, veg, gravy, etc. These leftovers will serve as the basis for many other meals throughout the week (i.e.: sandwiches, quesadillas, salads)
-I might only do half a roast and save some cutlets for a quick and elegant meal.
-Some sort of taco/enchilada/burrito or casserole
-A slow cooker meal
-A soup or stew
This week I will definitely be revisiting the Beer-Braised Turkey Tacos that we had last month and I have been hankering to try again! Find a turkey and get set for tomorrow!
