What's Cooking?!: Thanksgiving Edition

I enjoy a hearty Thanksgiving meal and by me having a young family, a large turkey and all of the heavy duty spreads will be entirely too much for us and leftovers are a pet peeve of mine so I like to make enough fill us for the day.

On the menu for /thanksgiving, there will be the following:

Stuffed Turkey breast with cornbread stuffing
Honey glazed ham slices
Homemade cranberry sauce
Macaroni and cheese baked
Collared greens
and for dessert, Sweet Potato Pie, 2!

If you are interested in the recipe for the stuffed turkey breast, then keep reading! Now this is a basic recipe so you can add whatever you like to your stuffed turkey...Happy Thanksgiving!!


1 (4-5 lb.) pkg. turkey breast half
2 c stuffing prepared
Salt and pepper for taste
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Rinse turkey; pat dry. With knife, loosen lining under skin leaving all but one edge attached. Toss stuffing with remaining ingredients in large bowl. Spoon into pocket under loosened skin. Secure opening with poultry skewers or toothpicks. Place, skin side up, in shallow roasting pan. Roast 1 1/2 hours. Baste with pan drippings; cover loosely with foil. Roast an additional 45-60 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
