Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - cjs - 01-14-2016 What's on the menu for everyone today?? Turkey "Sandwich" pizza. I so enjoyed the pizza I 'finally' put pickles on, I'm going to do it again with my turkey meat. We had a turkey leg meat sandwich last night opening a jar of my Secret Santa's Hefewwizen Bread & Butter pickles. These are wonderful and really spicy. I have never thought to add heat to my pickles. But, what a great flavor! P.S. So another thank you to Santa Blane. Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - Trixxee - 01-14-2016 How many meals do you get out of two turkey legs Jean? Wow. Definitely something with chicken - perhaps a sundried tomato cream sauce. Maybe some angel hair. For sure a baby greens salad. I've been wanting asparagus but will have to wait for a sale. Can't pay $5.99/lb. Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - cjs - 01-14-2016 I got 13 oz. out of these 2 legs. So, probably 3 dishes/or whatever. Plus 1 qt. of broth from bones and ~1/2 cup of delicious 'jus' from the pan. Pretty good for turkey legs. Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - Trixxee - 01-14-2016 That is awesome. Tony would never be satisfied with 2 ounces of meat per meal though. My grocery bill would go down dramatically if he would! Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - Mare749 - 01-14-2016 That is amazing, Jean. I don't think we would have had any l/os from those turkey legs. Isn't it great how much you get for your money with turkey? I made an extra "small" meatloaf the other day, so tonight we will have hot meatloaf sandwiches (cooked like a patty melt) and some tots. Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - cjs - 01-14-2016 Well Trixxee, I don't use the meat by itself - for the sandwiches we had last night (as a snack since we eat dinner mid-day) I sautéed onions, peppers etc. to stretch. I guess what I'm saying is lately I'm using meat for flavoring rather than flavoring the meat. if that makes sense. It's amazing what you can do with 3-4 oz. of any meat. Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - cjs - 01-14-2016 Pizza Time - Another use for roasted turkey legs - Combine turkey meat, onion, roasted poblanos, roasted corn, braising jus and Sriracha - wow, was this pizza hot, but it was so tasty we endured the numb lips!!! P.S. AND, the cracklin's from the turkey legs!! Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - Mare749 - 01-15-2016 How do you think of these combinations? Looks delicious. What kind of cheese did you use? Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - cjs - 01-15-2016 Thank you - Usually cleaning the refrigerator. I used Mozz, cheddar, and a Kreme Kaese (which is Havarti-like) that came in a Swiss Colony variety box at Christmas. Nice combo. I added the corn for a little sweetness because when I tasted the turkey mixture it was so darn hot! It worked. Re: Thursday's Dinner, 1/14/16?? - Gourmet_Mom - 01-16-2016 Looks delicious, Jean. I'll have to agree with Trixxee on the 2 ounces of meat per person for dinner or lunch. That wouldn't work at my house. LOL!
