Roast Turkey With Grapes & Prunes
Safflower oil, to coat
Paper bag
10 lb Turkey, whole
6 cup Dry corn bread, crumbled
2 tsp Thyme
2 tsp Sage
2 tsp Minced parsley
1/4 cup Port
1/2 cup Prunes, pitted & chopped
1/2 cup Green seedless grapes
1 cup Diced apples
1 cup Minced onion
2 tsp Safflower oil
1/4 Stick unsalted butter


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil inside of a large,
unprinted paper grocery bag. Wash and pat turkey dry.

2. In a large bowl mix corn-bread crumbs with thyme, sage, and
parsley. Set aside.

3. In a saucepan over medium heat, simmer port, prunes, grapes, and
apples for 15 minutes. In a skillet over medium-high heat, saute
onion in oil until soft but not browned (8 to 10 minutes). Add fruit
mixture and sauteed onion to bread crumbs and mix well.

4. Stuff cavity of turkey with bread stuffing. Lace opening shut with
kitchen twine. Dot exterior of turkey with small pieces of butter.
Place turkey inside prepared sack, roll opening of sack to seal
tightly, and place sack in a large roasting pan. Place in oven and
roast for 21/2 to 3 hours. During the last 30 minutes, tear away top
of bag to let exterior brown. To test for doneness, pierce a leg with
the tip of a sharp knife. The juice should spurt out a clear yellow;
if it is pink, roast the bird for 10 to 15 minutes longer.

Note: If you are concerned about chemicals in the paper of the bag,
you may want to line the bottom of the bag with aluminum foil or a
rack.

Diet hints and tips

If you really want to get thinner and boost your overall healthiness, then you really should follow a specially designed healthy meal plan. Ideally, this must incorporate five standard portions of fruit & veg every day and also include the optimum combination of protein, carbs and fat.

In deciding on a daily routine, you have to make sure you reduce consumption of salt, fats and refined carbohydrate.

When starting a weight loss program, dieters ordinarily look at supermarket and well known food products referred to as 'low fat'. This is ordinarily an error, seeing as how a food might just be low in fat, but also dangerously high in carbs & calories.

Keep yourself hydrated. Now and then in the course of a busy morning, you think you are a little peckish but in reality you may just want a pure drink of water or squash. The feelings of hunger and needing a drink are quite alike, but one can result in weight gain and the other is healthy.

As an alternative to concentrating on the foods that you need to ban from your daily routine, direct your attention to the sensible foods which you can introduce to your meal plan. If you can bring in the recommended amount nourishing fruit & veg into your meal plan, you'll soon see that you feel full and have a significantl;y lower chance of being tempted by those detrimental between meals chocolates.
