When it comes to holiday meals whole turkey and turkey parts are an excellent choice for holiday meals and recipes. I love how far a whole turkey goes, you can start with a traditional turkey dinner, and from there, the possibilities are endless including soups, stir fry, sandwiches, and even salads.
