LEFTOVER TURKEY AND STUFFING BUNDLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
• Lay out the crescent roll triangles on a clean work surface.
• Evenly distribute the turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce onto the roll, placing it on the large end of the triangle. I like to place the stuffing, then turkey on top, and end with the cranberry sauce.
• Carefully roll the pointed end of the triangle over the filling and tuck it under to make a package. Place each package on the lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
• Bake for 9-12 minutes until golden brown.
• To serve: place a scoop of warmed up leftover mashed potatoes on a plate, top with two turkey bundles, and ladle some gravy on top.
• Add a garnish of optional parsley and enjoy!

TURKEY BUNDLES

Steps:

• 1. Thaw roll dough, spread out, on lightly greased cookie sheet. Cover with damp towel to prevent drying. NOTE** make SURE you're using UNBAKED frozen DOUGH...and NOT the pre-baked frozen stuff.
• 2. Spray muffin tin with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350 dF.
• 3. Sautee onion and mushrooms in skillet with evoo until carmelized. Please don't leave the mushrooms in the "grey and limp" stage...continue cooking them until they brown.
• 4. Add raw ground meat to cooked onions and shrooms and continue cooking until meat is cooked through. If using beef, drain off excess grease.
• 5. Stir in UNDILUTED soup, straight out of the can. Stir well. Remove from heat.
• 6. Take two pieces of thawed dough and stretch each out, either by hand or with rolling pin on floured surface, until each one is about 4 inches all around. Then form one of them into bottom of one of the muffin tin cups so that it comes to above the top edge.
• 7. Fill GENEROUSLY (heaping) with cooked meat mixture and press blop of grated cheese on top (cheddar, colby, jack, muenster, swiss, provolone, mozzarella...whatever you have on hand).
• 8. Take the other flattened piece of dough and create a "lid" for the meat/cheese filling. Crimp top and bottom dough edges together with fingers. Don't worry if you can't "seal" them shut. Even if the top and bottom dough don't connect all the way around, amazingly they come out in one piece.
• 9. Beat egg in small bowl. Brush entire top of each Bundle with egg wash.
• 10. Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown. Gently remove from muffin tin and place on plate.

SIMPLE ROAST TURKEY

Steps:

• Remove any giblets from the cavity and reserve for stock or gravy. Pat turkey and turkey neck dry with paper towel; rub turkey all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt per pound of turkey, the pepper and the lemon zest, including the neck. Transfer to a 2-gallon (or larger) resealable plastic bag. Tuck herbs and 6 garlic cloves inside bag. Seal and refrigerate on a small rimmed baking sheet (or wrapped in another bag) for at least 1 day and up to 3 days, turning the bird over every day (or after 12 hours if brining for only 1 day).
• Remove turkey from bag and pat dry with paper towels. Place turkey, uncovered, back on the baking sheet. Return to the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to 12 hours to dry out the skin (this helps crisp it).
• When you are ready to cook the turkey, remove it from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for one hour.
• Heat oven to 450 degrees. In the bottom of a large roasting pan, add the cider and enough wine to fill the pan to a 1/4-inch depth. Add half the onions, the remaining 6 garlic cloves and the bay leaves. Stuff the remaining onion quarters and the lemon quarters into the turkey cavity. Brush the turkey skin generously with oil or melted butter.
• Place turkey, breast side up, on a roasting rack set inside the roasting pan. Transfer pan to the oven and roast 30 minutes. Cover breast with aluminum foil. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of a thigh reaches a temperature of 165 degrees, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours more. Transfer turkey to a cutting board to rest for 30 minutes before carving.

TURKEY IN THE BUNDT (LEFTOVER TURKEY)

Steps:

• Place 3 cups of bread cubes in the bottom of a greased bundt pan.
• Place turkey evenly over bread. Spread Swiss cheese over turkey. Sprinkle with sauted onions or leeks. Top with remaining 3 cups of bread cubes.
• Combine beaten eggs with milk and seasonings and pour over the mixture in the pan. Place bundt pan in a pan of water; I use a 9" x 13" pan for this. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour.
• Remove from water pan and cook and additional 10 minutes, or until a knife comes out clean.
• Cool for ten minutes. Use a plastic spatula to carefully lift turkey mixture away from the pan. Invert onto a platter.
