Answer 2

Turkey Rolled With Ham And Mozzarella

Ingredients

1 lb turkey breast slices, (which the Butcher can do for you), pounded to 1/8
4 oz ham; thinly sliced
5 oz mozzarella cheese, part skim milk; thinly sliced
1 fresh ground black pepper
3 tb plain nonfat yogurt
1/2 c dry bread crumbs
1 tb olive oil
1 fresh sage; for garnish
2 scallions; chopped
1/4 c dry white wine
1 md tomato; (peel seed & chop)
1 tb fresh sage; chopped
1 c fat-free chicken broth
1/8 ts salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350. Lay out the turkey slices on a large sheet of waxed paper or plastic wrap, overlapping them to form a large rectangle.
Cover the turkey with overlapping ham slices. Place the cheese over the ham. Be sure to leave a 1/4 inch border all the way around. Sprinkle with pepper.
Roll to turkey tightly, starting at one of the long sides, using the wrap to help nudge the meat. Tuck in the ends of the roll to keep the cheese from leaking out. Discard the paper.
Coat the turkey with the yogurt, then the bread crumbs (note: I chop up a tiny amount of sage and mix it in with the breadcrumbs). Place the turkey roll in a large, shallow baking dish and dribble the olive oil over it.
Bake the roll until firm and springy to the touch -- about 20 minutes.
Remove the roll from the oven and let it rest for five to seven minutes to allow the melted cheese to fiirm up.
While the turkey roll is baking, prepare the sauce: combine the scallions and wine in a small saucepan and reduce the liquid to half. Add the remaining ingredients and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cut the turkey in 1/3" slices. Arrange the slices on a heated serving dish, ladle on the hot sauce and garnish with fresh sage.

Maybe you can make this after Thanksgiving...

"Use leftover chicken or turkey to create this popular spicy Thai dish. Serve on crisp cabbage or lettuce leaves. For more intense flavor, make the meat mixture a day ahead and store in refrigerator until ready to use."
