I love turkey, but usually only cook it during late October and up through New Year's, while whole turkeys are plentiful. But what about you? Do you cook turkey all year long (turkey breasts are always available), or only during the holidays?
Thanks for visiting and have a great week!

I'm actually not at all partial to turkey; I'll have the dark meat, but the light meat takes so long to chew it feels like a marathon.
Plum sauce, however, is a good idea for it....
I love turkey, but I prefer the dark meat! But I'm with you on the white meat--too dry and tough.
As a vegetarian, I'd say, no! LOL!!
But it's nice to keep certain things special on certain special occasions!
Take care

I was a vegetarian for a few years. I missed turkey at the holidays;(.
I love turkey all year long! It's such a nice treat :)
Just wanted to pop by and say thanks for the great guest post today :)
Jemi, you're welcome, and thank you!
I'm drooling. Yes, I cook turkey all the time. Since we love turkey sandwiches and aren't crazy about the
processed meat in the deli, I get a boneless breast and bake it for an hour and viola!
Normally, I'm not a fan of turkey, either--but my son loves it. This recipe does sound delicious!
I make spicy turkey wings. They are huge compared to the chickens I get, but overall, not too shabby in taste.
Cheers.
