Last night I cooked a heritage turkey that my husband ordered from D'Artagnan. It was my first time cooking a heritage bird. The flavor is much stronger than a typical bird, and there is much less meat too. There were five of us dining, and there is only a very small ziplock of meat left. Typically I would get at least three meals from a turkey. We all liked the heritage bird very much. Well, except for my niece who
complained that there was not enough meat on the legs haha. I am going to make some sort of soup out of the carcass and leftover gravy this afternoon.
Served with mashed potatoes, green beans, and these maple roasted acorn squash wedges
