Some time back I cooked a turkey. We ate meals from it and I deboned it and froze the meat. Then I bring it back out for meals when we are not tired of turkey any more.
Last night was a turkey meal. I used a recipe on the back of a stuffing mix box. It said to prepare the stuffing or dressing (people call it both). In a greased casserole combine 3 cups cubed turkey (or chicken) meat along with a bag of frozen veggie blend--mine was broccoli, cauliflower, sweet red peppers and corn, but any blend would be good. Add about two cups of gravy, either from a jar or homemade--I actually used an undiluted can of low sodium cream of chicken noodle soup. Top the meat, sauce and veggies with the prepared stuffing. It was very good. Plenty for two meals for us.
Along with that we had pear slices topped with plain yogurt and a drizzle of honey.
Easy Sunday supper that tasted delicious. I often check out recipes on the backs of food items for fun.

I use my freezers a lot. It saves money and keeps things from getting boring.

I haven't eaten turkey,though it is popular over there.What interests me is that there are recipes on the backs of food items.

Yes, many food items have extra ideas for using them. Other poultry is good as well. I also do not always use the stuffing mix but make my own from scratch.

@GardenGerty Yes, indeed. Chicken is one of my favourite meats.

It might work with tofu or sauteed mushrooms. It was good.

Not everyone enjoys turkey year around, but we do. It is a good quality protein and usually inexpensive.

I really liked the addition of a lot of veggies. It made it healthier.

We like it all the time. You can do the same with just about any large cut of meat. Cook it, bag it, serve it later.

@GardenGerty This is definitely the way to go, and a regular practice in my house. I like to spread the food and the dollars wherever I can.
