Food Fast Without Fast Food

Posted by Hallee on Jun 10, 2011 in Hallee's Galley, kitchen & cooking tips, Life, menus & menu planning, Recipes

When you eat the way my family eats, and when you cook the way I cook, you will occasionally face the same dilemma I have faced: Something has interrupted my schedule/planning/coordinating or I’m sick. I haven’t prepped a thing, nothing is defrosted, soaked, steamed — what in the world can I cook for dinner?

Turkey Sausage Breakfast Burritos

Posted by Hallee on May 6, 2011 in Breakfast, Hallee's Galley, Recipes

I wanted to make something that could be made in a big batch, then put in the freezer for a quick breakfast, or eaten for breakfast while traveling. This recipe was wonderful. You can adjust it any way you like – change the meat, add different fillings. It’s extremely versatile.

Turkey Sandwich Meat

It is so simple to make your own sandwich meat, and it tastes SO much better than anything you can purchase prepackaged or have sliced at a supermarket deli.

Turkey Breast in the Rotisserie

Posted by Hallee on Apr 20, 2011 in American Quisine, entrees, Hallee's Galley, Recipes

I LOVE my rotisserie oven. I don’t know why food tastes so much better coming out of the rotisserie than the oven, but it does. I prefer to cook meat in it if I can. This turkey breast was amazing – I used it to make lunch meat and the flavor even in thinly sliced pieces was just wonderful.

Traditional Turkey Gravy

Posted by Hallee on Nov 22, 2010 in Hallee's Galley, Holiday fare, Recipes, sauces & spreads

When my mom makes turkey gravy, she always makes giblet gravy (recipe to follow). It took me many years to learn how to make any other kind of gravy. Now that I make this recipe, it would be hard for me to say whether I prefer giblet gravy over this traditional gravy or not! It is really flavorful and the perfect compliment to the rest of your Thanksgiving feast.

Roasting the Perfect Turkey

Posted by Hallee on Nov 19, 2010 in American Quisine, entrees, Hallee's Galley, Holiday fare, kitchen & cooking tips, Recipes

Roasting a turkey may seem like a daunting task, but it’s really not that difficult. It’s just a matter of making sure it’s cooked all the way more than anything, and making sure you don’t over-cook it. Under-cooked turkey is a health hazard, and over-cooked turkey can be dry.

Gobble Gobble

Several months ago, our local Kroger had turkeys on sale for 59¢ a pound. I checked with Heather at Couponning 101 if that was a good deal, because I typically just shop for meat and staples at the commissary. She told me it was, so I bought two of them.
