Alis Turkey Delight - Simple Crock pot Recipes

Time is always so important to us all.
That's why I think the crock pot is one of  the best inventions ever. It teaches us to SLOW DOWN and Cook Slow....
SO.... here is another crock pot recipe for you that incorporates slow cooked Turkey with raw veggies....
Start with raw rinsed turkey drumsticks.
Use a full sized crock pot to ensure the full turkey drumstick fits and will be covered with water.
Fill the crock pot 3/4 way full with water
Add celtic salt, cinnamon and anise seeds
Cook fully on high for 4 hours
if you cook on low it may take 6 hours
(Note* you will know the turkey legs are fully cooked when you pick up the bone and the meat just falls off ) (Yum!!!)

How to Assemble a great meal with the slow cooked Turkey
2-4oz turkey
Lightly drizzle with a light sauce (home made barbecue or a red tomato sauce OR anything you want) :)
add raw chopped vegetable salad:
    tomatoes
    cucumbers
    hungarian peppers
    jalapenos
    green onion
    hemp oil
  
add a side of roughly chopped mixed greens (arugula, kale, spinach)
Top with a sliced Apricot or any fruit (pear, apple, mango, peach, necatrine, plum etc...)
and a squeeze of fresh lime juice
This adds a natural sweet flavor to off set the vegetable medley.

*Tip - use dried fruit as another option (go for freeze dried fruits because they contain no extra sugar or oils)

Walla!!! done...
Now tell me how it tastes..
