Betty white.

You must've seen this coming. At the rate I'm going, Fridays might become "Recrock Fridays"...or, you know, something way awesomer sounding than that.  


"Tuscan Turkey and Beans" (6 quart pot)

The original recipe is HERE.

~6 c water
~1 (16 oz) bag dried navy beans, sorted and rinsed
~3 c chicken broth
~1/4 c olive oil
~3/4 c chopped parsley
~1 T Italian seasoning
~2 T chopped garlic
~ 1 1/2 t salt
~1/2 t pepper
~1 1/2 lbs turkey breast, skin removed
~1 1/2 c frozen green beans, thawed

Spray crock pot with pam.
In a saucepan, heat water to boiling over medium-high heat.
Add navy beans.
Reduce heat to medium low; simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
Drain; rise with cold water.
Place beans in crock pot; REMEMBER to add broth.
In a medium bowl, stir together olive oil, 1/2 c parsley, Italian seasoning, garlic, 1/2 t salt, and pepper.
Press mixture firmly onto turkey.
Place turkey on top of beans.
Cover and cook on low for 9 hours.
Remove turkey from crock pot.
Increase heat to high.
Stir in green beans and remaining 1 t salt.
Cover and cook on high for 20 minutes.
Remove turkey from bones.
Serve beans in bowls, topped with turkey.
Sprinkle remaining parsley on top.


6 servings.
So. Much. Better. The beans were tender like they were supposed to be and not at all overcooked.
