Popcorn-stuffed Turkey

Thanks to Mom and to Penni Henry for sharing this recipe!



TURKEY RECIPE



Here is a turkey recipe that also includes the use of popcorn as a stuffing -- imagine that.


When I found this recipe, I thought it was perfect for people like me, who just are not sure how to tell when poultry is thoroughly cooked, but not dried out. Give this a try.


8 - 15 lb. turkey


1 cup melted butter


1 cup stuffing (Pepperidge Farm is Good.)


1 cup uncooked popcorn (ORVILLE REDENBACHER'S LOW FAT)


Salt/pepper to taste



Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush turkey well with melted butter, salt and pepper.


Fill cavity with stuffing and popcorn.


Place in baking pan with the neck end toward the back of the oven.


Listen for the popping sounds.


When the turkey's ass blows the oven door open and the bird flies across the room, it's done.
