Are you hosting Thanksgiving or Christmas Dinner? How about creating a roasted organic turkey dinner?

A Delicious Roasted Organic Turkey Recipe 



Defrost your Turkey at least 2 days ahead of time. This will ensure a very moist cooked bird.

Do what you can ahead of time. This will relieve stress and allow you to enjoy your family and friends the day of.
Prepare your stuffing and Cranberry sauce 3-4 days in advance. These items will hold really well and will reheat perfectly with out sacrificing quality.

Also set your dining room table the weekend before. That way you can take your time creating a beautiful table with place cards and all.
