Thanksgiving 2016 - An Economical 12 Pound Turkey

[a_boleyn]

Sorry for the picture overload but I wanted to show how many meals you can get out of one 12 pound turkey ... 16 servings of boneless breast meat, 10 turkey patties, at least 2 or 3 turkey mole wraps or whatever you want to do with the drumsticks. And then there's the turkey stock from the carcass. Oh, and that wingette snack

I'll make sure to book mark this for next month when I have turkey up to my keister! Thanks so much!

Click on the 'turkey' tag and go back to one of my first series of turkey posts when I used the roasted turkey meat for all kinds of sandwiches etc. I especially liked the Singapore noodles and the Turkey egg fu young. (Shame most of the pictures are expired.)

I will do that - thanks!

Did you get the turkey at No Frills? I noticed ours had really great deals on whole turkeys just before Thanksgiving

I got it at FoodBasics ... 99cents a pound frozen. I don't shop at No Frills. Not particularly convenient location wise when there's a FB right across the street from the library, the Beer Store etc. I go to Metro for the rest of my grocery shopping or Freshco.
