Winter Rice Pilaf
Broccoli with Bacon and Mustard

Cooking time:  30 minutes for menu           Cooking schedule: see below for instructions

     If you can't find turkey cutlets, substitute thinly sliced turkey tenderloin, pork cutlets or chicken breasts. The Pilaf should finish the mushrooms.

Lemon and Soy Glazed Turkey Cutlets

Total time: 20 minutes 
    Turkey cutlets, are thin slices of turkey breast meat.  They cook quickly and are particularly well suited to savory marinades and sauces.  If you can't find them, substitute thinly sliced turkey tenderloin or chicken breasts. This is an intensely flavored, savory dish.

      I often make Rice Pilaf in summer with fresh tomatoes and herbs.  This is a winter version.  Use quick-cooking brown rice or substitute Basmati.
