Description:
I received this recipe from Miss Theresa who we met while Casey recuperated from her TP/AIT a year ago.
She is a wonderful gal- Like Casey, still has a few ongoing medical problems...
I wish to thank her here for sending this recipe.
Having done my turkey already, (see picture above), I can hope that those of you who might be interested in a tasty turkey recipe will try this one tomorrow...
Have a very Happy Thanksgiving!
Love to all.

Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 whole turkey, (fresh or completely thawed)
- 1 large lemon, cut into halves
- salt and pepper to taste
- butter or olive oil, whichever you prefer
Directions:
- Turn oven to 350°
- Rub butter, or oil, over the skin of the turkey until it is completely coated.
- After placing in roasting pan, tuck wings in and under.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper and any other seasonings you prefer.
- Take a knife, and very gently separate the skin from the breast meat.
- Slide lemon halves under the skin with the peel side up.Place 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 until turkey is done. Please refer to timing chart included with turkey, or until meat thermometer registers 165°.
If you've followed these steps correctly, your turkey should look much like the one pictured below.
Bon Appetit!
