-1/3 cup chopped celery
-1/3 cup chopped carrot
-3 garlic cloves, minced
-1 teaspoon ground mustard
-1 bay leaf
-1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
-1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
-1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage
-1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions:
-In a 6-qt. slow cooker, combine the wine, apple, fennel, celery, carrot, garlic, mustard, cabbage (if using) and bay leaf. In a small bowl, combine the rosemary, thyme, sage and pepper; rub over turkey. Add turkey to slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until meat is tender.

-Remove meat to a serving platter and keep warm. Strain drippings into a measuring cup to measure 1 cup. Skim fat. In a small saucepan, combine cornstarch and cream; stir until smooth. Gradually add drippings. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with turkey.

Personal Notes:
5 ounces cooked turkey with 3 tablespoons gravy equals 238 calories, 3 g fat (1 g saturated fat), 113 mg cholesterol, 102 mg sodium, 7 g carbohydrate, 1 g fiber, 43 g protein. Diabetic Exchanges: 6 lean meat, 1/2 starch.

I made a side of sauteed cabbage, fennel bulb, scallions with salt, pepper, and garlic powder and the flavors paired nicely with the dish.
