The Cheater's Guide to Turkey

My Mom told me about these frozen turkey breasts you can buy at the store so I knew I had to try them. Drew loves turkey but making a whole turkey is A) too much work right now and B) I wouldn't know where to start. So for this Friday night dinner, I made a Jennie O Oven Ready turkey breast.

It was fantastic!

Here is what you need to look for at the store:

Inside the bag is a 2.5 lb turkey breast in a "fool proof" wrapper. Leave the turkey in the fool proof wrapper and place in your roasting pan. 2 hours later I was cutting into a perfectly moist turkey with just the right amount of juices. SO GOOD!

There is a gravy packet included too! So to round out this Cheater's Guide to Turkey, I'm whipped up some stuffing from a box, 10 minute cresent rolls and some vegetable steamers (Rosemary butter green beans and potatoes...yummm!).

Weeknight Thanksgiving!
