Turkey Week

A few weeks ago my husband won a turkey at a turkey shoot. I thought today would be a good day to cook it, then have leftovers throughout the week. My original plan was to cook the turkey in the crock pot, but it was too big, and I couldn't get the top on so I had to change plans.

I made a rub of finely chopped oregano, basil, rosemary, garlic and season salt and rubbed this under the skin of the turkey. After an hour or 2 in the oven, I will add some honey and melted butter, also under the skin. Bake it at 325 for 3 1/2 hours or so, turning or covering if it gets too brown.

Tonight I will serve it with green beans and mashed potatoes, as the week progresses I may have to get more creative. Happy Sunday
