Because I am in a never-ending search and attempting to get my family to eat healthier, I have started cooking turkey breast rolls on Sunday nights and keeping turkey breast in the fridge for healthier lunches.
Cooking fresh turkey is:
- healthier than processed lunch meat
- less expensive than processed lunch meat
- tastes better than processed lunch meat
Plus, when I have delicious fresh turkey in the fridge, I can:
- Recreate my favorite sandwiches from Panera.
- Recreate my favorite chili from Panera.
- Have meat around for a quick soup, salad, wrap, stir fry, or casserole.

These frozen turkey breasts usually come with a packet of gravy. You can make the gravy if you like, but I typically want to make the turkey for sandwiches and salads, so I discard the gravy packet.
