1 clove garlic crushed
2 stalks celery cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 4 oz. can of sliced mushrooms drained
1 small green squash sliced and cut into quarters
Sprig of chopped fresh parsley
Seasonings: 1/2 tsp. dill, 1/4 tsp. thyme, 1/4 tsp. basil
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup small green olives stuffed with pimento (cut in half)

  1. Boil 3 cups water, add salt, stir LifeField buckwheat into boiling water, reduce heat, gently stir, cover, simmer just 5 — 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Discard excess water and set aside.

Add mushrooms, green squash, parsley, seasonings, white wine and heat gently for 5 minutes. Add water and stuffed olives. Cook 2 — 3 minutes longer. Remove from heat and combine with LifeField buckwheat.

  4. Pre-heat oven 10 minutes to 325°F. Line roasting pan with heavy aluminum foil. Place stuffed turkey breast side up in open roasting pan. Grease turkey breast well with shortening. Cover with cheesecloth (large enough to cover bird and drape down sides) moistened completely with water. Roast at 325°F in constant oven and baste at least 3 or 4 times after one and half hours cooking until turkey is done. Do not add water. Remove cheesecloth for the last 20 minutes.
