Crock Pot Roast Turkey Breast and Turkey Gravy
3 lb. frozen turkey breast, thawed
meat tenderizer (to taste)
1/3 cup cornstarch
2 cups water
Thaw the turkey breast, if frozen. Use meat tenderizer to salt and tenderize the turkey to taste. Place the turkey breast in a crock pot and cook on low all day for a dinner meal (roughly 6 to 8 hours; larger turkey breasts may take 8 to 10 hours). When ready to serve, remove the cooked roast turkey breast to a tray or cutting board. Slice into desired serving pieces and place on a serving platter. Now, make your roast turkey gravy. From the juices that are left in the crock pot, spoon off as much fat and turkey slivers as you can, and then pour the juices into a saucepan. Mix together 1/3 cup cornstarch and 1 cup water, and add to the saucepan of juices. Stir thoroughly before putting the saucepan over heat. Now, move the saucepan to a burner on your cooktop. Turn the heat on to low, and cook the gravy, stirring constantly. If the gravy is too thick, add a little water at a time until it is smooth and of perfect consistency. In making this recipe, I added 1 extra cup of water to thin the gravy to a perfect consistency. Serve while hot!
Menu suggestion: Place sliced roast turkey breast on serving plate, along with Betty's Cornbread-Sage Dressing . Ladle your toast turkey gravy over the turkey slices slices. Serve with Betty's Blakemore Peas, cranberry sauce, a yeast roll, and a glass of iced tea or lemonade. A great dessert to go with this dinner is Betty's Angelic Frozen Coconut-Caramel Pie! Enjoy!!!

Why this Betty's Crock Pot Roast Turkey Breast and Turkey Gravy works for PCOS
Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Betty's Crock Pot Roast Turkey Breast and Turkey Gravy works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
