Healthy Turkey
My husband and I like cooking turkey in my crockpot, covered with Swanson chicken broth. Is it healthier than baking in the oven?
--Sandi
Hi Sandi!
Healthwise, there wouldn’t be much difference in slow-cooking turkey in a crockpot or roasting in the oven. Turkey meat – especially the white meat – is one of the healthier protein options out there, and unless you deep-fry turkey or drown it in a rich cream sauce, it’s a pretty good bet if you’re on a healthy eating plan.
Here’s to a happy – and healthy – Thanksgiving!

QuestionI would like a recipe for Muffaletta (may not be spelled correctly). I have only found one place in Dallas that sells the sandwich and that is too far to drive for just a sandwich, so if I can find a recipe, I can make my own. Thank you, GretchenMarch 2012

QuestionI was wondering if you could add the thumbprint cookies recipe to the site. I had it in my recipe box but it seems to have gone missing, the good recipes always do. I made them 2 years ago as Christmas presents for the homeless and would really like to make them for my kids this year. I remember the filling being preserves and they were so good. Thanks so much! --Jamie Hi Betty. I had a box of your recipes that my mother gave me when I married. Unfortunately, I lost one of my favorites: the thumbprint cookies. It was a sugar cookie with preserves in center. Can you please post that one or send it? Thank you. --KristinaMarch 2012

QuestionI got a recipe card in the mail many years ago and it's the only banana bread I will ever make again. I wanted to share it with friends as a holiday gift and was hoping to find it on here so I could just send a link. Thank you. --DixieMarch 2012
