To my happy surprise it worked perfectly and I will never make a turkey any other way again! I also made the two sides that I was missing from other Thanksgivings.

Turkey & Green Pepper Meatloaf With Three Cheese Fennel Sauce

My hubby was pleasantly surprised with this moist and flavorful spin on this turkey burger… Continue reading
