TURKEY AND STUFFING CASSEROLE FOR TWO
Even the smallest turkey is too much for two, but I missed the taste of homemade turkey and stuffing. I tried this recipe with a boneless turkey breast and it was just perfect.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Generously coat a 2 1/2-quart baking dish with butter. Place bread on baking sheets.
- Toast bread in the preheated oven until golden brown, flipping halfway through cooking time, about 15 minutes total.
- While bread is toasting, melt 2 tablespoons butter in olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Saute onion and celery until soft and slightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Cube toast and put in a large mixing bowl with sauteed vegetables. Season with poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add enough chicken broth to mash mixture together and form a moist, but not wet stuffing. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish.
- Rinse turkey under cold water and pat dry. Lay turkey breast, skin-side up, on top on stuffing mixture. Slip cubes of butter under the skin and pour melted butter over top. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Tent with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 2 1/2 hours. Remove foil and continue to bake until turkey is no longer pink in the center, juices run clear, and skin browns, about 30 minutes more. Transfer turkey to a plate and let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Add the butter to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once melted and foaming, add the onion, celery, and garlic and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Add the sausage to the pan and immediately begin breaking it up with the back of a wooden spoon so it will cook down and crumble. Cook the sausage until it's browned, about 6 minutes, then add the cranberries, sage, rosemary and thyme and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes. Stir in the white wine and use your wooden spoon to scrape up the bottom of the pan for any stuck bits. Let cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
- Add the bread cubes to a large bowl and add the chicken broth, beaten egg, sausage mixture, and chopped parsley and stir all together so all the bread is soft and moistened. Let cool as you prep the turkey.
- Lay the turkey breast skin-side-down on your work surface and season the meat with salt and pepper. Add a layer of the stuffing about 1/2-inch thick across the turkey breast, leaving a 1/2-inch border. The extra stuffing can be placed in an 8-inch-by-8-inch-buttered casserole dish and baked the last 40 minutes of cooking.
- Carefully roll the turkey up into a cylinder. Tie the roll with butcher's twine with about 1-inch between each knot. Trim the strings after tying. Place the turkey seam-side-down on a baking sheet covered with foil and fitted with a baking rack. Drizzle the turkey with olive oil, rub into the skin, then season well with salt and pepper.
- Place in the oven and roast for 1 hour 15 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the roll reads 155 degrees F. Remove the turkey from the oven and let rest, loosely tented with foil for 15 minutes. The turkey will rise in temperature as it rests to 165 degrees F. Snip the butcher's twine and slice the roll into 1-inch thick slices, place on a platter, and garnish with fresh rosemary and sage.
TRADITIONAL ROAST STUFFED TURKEY
When I eat roast turkey, I want a basic recipe, no special herbs or brines. Slow roasted straight up, browned to perfection. Just the way Grandma used to do it when I was a little girl. I begin the stuffing preparation the night before. Don't let the long instructions scare you off, I explained each step for beginner cooks.

Steps:
- Tear the bread into pieces, and place back into the bags overnight.
- Dice the onion, and leave covered on the counter.
- The next day, saute the diced onion in margarine, stir in sage and chicken broth.
- Place the bread pieces in a large mixing bowl, pour most of the onion mixture onto the bread and stir.
- The stuffing has enough moisture when you can squeeze a handful, and when opening your hand, the stuffing stays in a loose ball. If it falls apart, add a little more onion mixture.
- If it is soggy and squeezes together tightly, add a little more bread pieces.
- If the bird has skin which is binding it's legs together, cut this.
- Rinse the bird, remove and discard heart, neck etc. and pat the insides to remove some of the moisture.
- Push the stuffing into the carcass,until you cant' get anymore in, overstuffing the bird as seen in the picture. The tighter you push it in, the moister the stuffing will be.
- Stuff the neck cavity.
- If you have leftover stuffing, that is a good thing. Place it in a sprayed crock pot and cook on low for 4-5 hours.
- Wrap the legs and wings with foil, they will cook quickly.
- Put a piece of loose foil over the entire bird.
- Roast at 325°F for about 3 hours.
- Remove all of the foil, setting it aside and roast for another hour.
- If the turkey does not have a pop up timer, use a meat thermometer.
- When done, set the turkey out on the counter and cover loosely with the foil, let it stand 20 minutes for a moist bird.
- Remove the stuffing from the bird and mix it in with the crock pot stuffing.
- Carve the turkey and serve on a platter.
- Enjoy this time honored tradition with your loved ones.
- You may use more or less sage, according to your tastes.

ROAST TURKEY WITH OLD FASHIONED BREAD STUFFING
I used this recipe from Better Homes and Gardens for my first year of making Thanksgiving dinner. Judging by the results, no one knew that I hadn't cooked this meal a million times before. The turkey was perfectly moist and the stuffing was incredible! If serving a large crowd, I would double the stuffing! I ran out last year because the bird needed it all, and had to make an extra casserole of Stovetop. It didn't even compare to the homemade! This recipe is well worth the effort, and your family will thank you! You don't have to mess with the fancy turkey lacing, all I did was fasten the back and legs shut with a metal skewer and it turned out fine. Prep time does not include making bread cubes.

Steps:
- For stuffing, in a medium saucepan cook celery, mushrooms, and onion in butter until tender but not brown, remove from heat.
- Stir in sage, pepper, and salt.
- Place dry bread cubes in a large mixing bowl, add onion mixture.
- Drizzle with enough broth or water to moisten, tossing lightly.
- Season body cavity of turkey with salt.
- Spoon some stuffing LOOSELY into the neck cavity.
- Pull the neck skin to the back, fasten with a skewer.
- LIGHTLY spoon more stuffing into the body cavity (place any remaining stuffing into a casserole, cover and chill. Dot with butter and bake alongside turkey for 35-45 minutes or until heated through).
- Tuck the ends of the drumsticks under the band of skin across the tail.
- If the band of skin is not present, tie the drumsticks securely to the tail.
- Twist wing tips under the back.
- Place turkey, breast side DOWN, on a rack in a shallow roastng pan.
- Brush with oil.
- Cover turkey loosely with foil.
- Roast turkey in a 325 degree oven for 3 1/4 to 3 1/2 hours, or until a meat thermometer placed into the center of a thigh (but not touching the bone) reads 180 degrees. Make sure center of stuffing reads 165 degrees.
- After about 1 1/2 hours, turn the turkey over so that it is breast side up.
- Brush breast side with oil.
- After 2 1/2 hours, cut loose drumsticks so that thighs will cook evenly.
- When done, drumsticks should move very easliy in their sockets and their thickest parts should feel soft when pressed.
- Uncover the last 30 minutes of roasting.
- To make dry bread cubes: cut bread into 1/2 inch squares.
- (12-14 slices of bread for 8 cups cubes) Place in a brown paper bag and close loosely.
- Let stand 3-4 days, mixing up by hand each day until thoroughly dry.
- OR, spread bread cubes onto a large cookie sheet in a single layer and bake at 300 degrees 10-15 minutes or until dry, stirring twice.
- Cool.
- I highly recommend using homemade white bread (by hand or bread machine) for the bread cubes.
- You will be AMAZED at the difference in texture!
