Thawed turkey may be kept in the
refrigerator up to 4 days before
cooking.
Use paper towels, not cloth, to wipe
off turkey and clean up juices.
Combine stuffing ingredients and
stuff turkey just before roasting,
not the night before.
Tuck wings back to hold the neck
skin in place. Doing so will help
stabilize the turkey in the pan and
when carving
Place your turkey in the pre-heated
oven at 325 degrees.
When the turkey is about 2/3 done,
loosely cover the breast and top of
drumsticks with a piece of
lightweight foil to prevent
overcooking.
Before removing stuffing and
carving, let your turkey stand 15
minutes to allow juices to set.
Paper Plate Turkey Craft
What you will need:
- 3 snack-sized
paper plates
- paper,
- glue,
- paint,
- a brass brad,
5. Print out tail feather pattern onto colored
paper. Cut them apart and place them in a
pile. (You can also make up your own story
or use them to write things on them that
you are thankful for. (The story of
Thanksgiving )
- google eyes,
What to do:
1. Place two snack-size plates together,
top-to-top. Cut about 1/3 off the tops of
the plates and glue them together to make
the turkey's body. Do not glue 1 1/2" from
the top left-hand edge of the paper plates
(where the tail will be attached). You will
need this area to spread out the feathers.
Leave the cut edge of the plates open. You
will use this to store the turkey's tail
feathers.
2. Cut another paper plate in half.
Fold one half in thirds to make
the turkey's head. Fold the other
half in half to make the turkey's
wing.
3. Paint the head, body, and wing
and glue them together as shown
in the picture.
Glue on google
eyes.
4. Print out feet pattern
and use it to cut feet from
yellow construction paper. Glue the feet to
the body. Cut a waddle from red
construction paper and glue to the turkey's
face.
6. Punch a hole at the bottom of the
feathers with a hole punch, and punch a
hole in the top left-hand side of the back
paper plate where the tail should be
attached.
7. Insert the feathers between the two
paper plates and insert the brad through
the holes in the feathers and the hole in
the back paper plate, open up the prongs
to secure it. The feathers can be stored
inside the turkey's body.
