Directions: |
Directions:In a deep pan or skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Sauté the onion until it is soft, about 4 minutes.
Add the carrot, celery, parsnip and sweet potato. Lower heat to medium and, stirring frequently, sauté until the vegetables become lightly browned. Add the bay leaf, thyme and 1 cup of broth. Lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are almost tender, about 10 minutes or less.
Stir in the apple and cranberries (if using frozen cranberries). If the mixture seems dry, add enough additional broth to cook the fruit. Gently simmer until the apple has softened and the cranberries are tender, about 5 minutes. (If using canned cranberries, add them after the apple has softened, along with the turkey.)
Add the turkey and heat through for a few more minutes, until the turkey is hot.
Remove the bay leaf. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately as is or over brown rice or whole-grain pasta, or freeze half for future use. |
