Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 pounds turkey breast, thawed in fridge
1/2 bunch parsley springs
salad oil and lemon pepper seasoning
1 onion, sliced
2 carrots, cleaned and sliced
2 celery stalks, cleaned and sliced
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 can tomato soup
1 teaspoon rosemary
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup Land of Lakes fat free half and half--may
need a little bit more to thin the gravy
1/2 teaspoon Kitchen Bouquet browing and seasoning
sauce, optional

Place sliced onion and parsley springs in the bottom of the crockpot. ( I
used my 5 quart model and I am sure that a smaller one would work well
too.) Rinse off the turkey breast and pat dry. Set aside the gravy packet
if one came with the meat for later use. Apply some oil to the top of the
meat and season with lemon pepper seasoning. Place the meat on top of the
onion and parsley. You may have to fan it out slightly. Tuck the carrots
and celery pieces around the turkey. In a small saucepan mix the 1/2 can
of soup, chicken broth and rosemary; heat to a boil. Pour this mixture
over the bird. Cover the crockpot with a piece of foil and then put the
lid on the pot to cover. Cook on low setting for 8-10 hours. Let the meat
stand 10 minutes before you attempt to slice it. To make a really tasty
gravy, strain the vegetables from the crockpot and place the resulting
liquids into a saucepan. You can add the gravy pack that came with your
turkey to this if you wish. Combine the cornstarch and half/half until
smooth and blended; gradually add this to the drippings. Cook over medium
heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils. Boil for
one minute, stirring constantly. You may need a little more half and half
or chicken broth to thin it if you think it is getting too thick. Remove
from the heat and add the browning-and-seasoning sauce if desired to give
it a little color and flavor---a little goes a long way with that stuff
though.
