Naomi's Take
The very first national holiday I spent in America was Thanksgiving and, each year since, our family has celebrated with a festive meal where the turkey was the star attraction!
I always buy and prepare enough Empire Kosher® turkey to have plenty left over— it makes the next day’s Shabbat preparations easy. You can use the bones and neck for soup, and then incorporate the still-juicy turkey into an easy, yet elegant, quiche with a loaded turkey Caesar salad.
