Turkey "Breast" Recipe....
Ingredients:
1 whole turkey
1 large lemon, cut into halves
salt and pepper to taste
butter or olive oil, whichever you prefer
Heat oven to 350 degrees
Rub butter or oil over the skin of the turkey until it is completely coated.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and any other seasonings you prefer.
Take a knife and gently separate the skin from the breast meat;
Slide lemon halves under the skin with the peel side up, one on
each side. This way the juice from the lemon will release into the breasts.
Cover and bake for 30-45 minutes. Remove cover and continue
to roast until juices run clear, basting every 15-20 minutes.
If you've followed these steps correctly, your turkey should
look like the one in the picture.
Bon Appetit!

4½ cups water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tsp. beefflavored bouillon granules
Vegetable cooking spray
2 tsp. peanut oil
½ cup thinly sliced celery
¼ cup thinly sliced green onions
1 tsp. finely chopped fresh gingerroot (I use more)
2 cupsliced fresh mushrooms
1 (8 oz.) can sliced water chestnuts, drained

1½ cups fresh snow pea pods, trimmed & cut into 1 in. pieces
2 tsp. Sesame oil -- or more to taste.
Partially freeze steak, trim fat from steak. Slice steak diagonally across grain into 1/8 in. strips. Set aside
Combine water, cornstarch & bouillon granules (or substitute beef broth) in a medium bowl. Stir well & set aside.
Coat a wok or large nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add peanut oil. Place over med. heat until hot. Add celery, onions & gingerroot. Stir-fry for 3 minutes, or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Remove from wok.
Add steak stir- fry 3 minutes or until browned. Add cornstarch mixture, water chestnuts & pepper, stirring well.
Cover & cook over med. heat 10 minutes. Stir in noodles, vegetables, snow peas & sesame oil. Cook an additional 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

I have also made this, substituting sliced chicken & chicken broth for the beef.
Both are good.
