Why I Love This Recipe
From Joan S./Jill G:
This recipe is from a collection of all turkey recipes that are two hole punched on the top and held together with loose leaf binder rings. It likely dates back to the 80’s. It appears to be the only recipe used from the collection. My mom only made this every Christmas Eve, which is when we celebrated Christmas. The story goes that we celebrated on Christmas Eve because my great grandmother didn’t want to get up early and go anywhere on Christmas morning. This is the first time I’ve read this recipe myself and is also the only recipe I’ve encountered that called for MSG.
