Thanks to this sub, I was on the lookout for turkeys on sale. I picked up 2 13-15 pounders at 89 cents per pound. Cooked the 15 pounder today. I pulled all the meat off, separated it into 3 portions of meat and then made soup with all of the dark meat. A rough estimate per bowl of soup that is absolutely loaded with meat is about $1.25. It is probably one of the best batches of soup I have ever made, too. SO good.
I'm going to try making enchiladas with one of the portions of white meat. Not sure what I'll do with the other yet.
My first big win from a tip from the sub!

Looks wonderful!
Thanks for reminding me that turkey is a bargain now. And that looks delicious!
Go to “McCormick Recipes. Com” An envelope or two their enchilada sauce can make white “chicken” or turkey enchiladas!
I make once every 2 weeks for my family. Cheap, too.
The packet is about 1.25
Meat – you got it
A can of hatch chilis – about 1.25
A cup of sour cream – around 1.00
And a cup of milk – about 48. cents
And corn tortillas – 8 …i dunno…1.00
So good! Restaurant quality.
How did you make the soup if you don’t mind sharing. Looks amazing.
Did you make the stock yourself naturally?!
