Thought this might come in handy this busy holiday season

Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy.

Here is a turkey recipe that also includes the use of popcorn as a
stuffing - imagine that.
When I found this recipe, I thought it was perfect for people like me,
who just are not sure how to tell when poultry is thoroughly cooked, but
not dried out. Give this a try.

BAKED STUFFED TURKEY

5-16 lb.Turkey

2 cups melted butter & 1 cup stuffing (Pepperidge Farm is good.)
1 cup uncooked popcorn (ORVILLE REDENBACHER'S LOW FAT) Salt/pepper to
taste

Place a nice serving platter on the table for the turkey to land on when
finished baking.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush turkey well with melted butter, salt,
and pepper.

Fill cavity with stuffing and popcorn.

Place in baking pan with the neck end toward the back of the oven.

Listen for the popping sounds. When the turkey's ###### blows the oven door
open and the turkey flies across the room,and lands on the serving platter,
it's done.

And, you thought I couldn't cook.........

I laughed right out loud.

thanks!

thanks for posting that, it is funny!!!!!

i am dreading thanksgiving this year. we have been so shorthanded at work, i have been assigned 24 extra hours in addition to my regular 48. i get part of the day off before thanksgiving and then the entire thanksgiving day off - so i have no time to get groceries, clean house, etc.

think i will hit the store wednesday night and pray one of those pre-cooked, smoked turkeys is still lurking in a cooler. other than that, we usually have mashed potatoes, gravy, corn and deep-fried cauliflower (my children's FAVORITE) and maybe find a frozen dutch apple pie.

then friday its back to work until monday!
