Tastes Like Chicken

I don't care about turkey, chicken wins hands down. No need for any gravy, it is never dry. Add baked potatos, some brussel sprouts too. Yummy, yum, yum! The chicken, a lowly bird In turkey's shadow On the day it should be safe It rests on my plate Next to Brussels sprouts and double baked potatoes Baptized with Wine! For Andrea Dietrich's "Make me drool" contest.

oh my gosh, I should have done comments before judging. Now I know who wrote the double epulaeryu. I really did like these, Richard. But i could only place those who did one each. This is excellent work (despite the fact you included the brussel sprouts haha) I have often cooked chicken instead of turkey. I just don't get all the fuss about having to have turkey when chicken is so much better. A man after my own heart!!

We both agree on this one Richard.....give me chicken over turkey, anytime! Your unsophisticated recipe is ideal for me! I think you're going to find a long line of hungry people waiting outside your door:) // paul

Fortunate for me my wife is a chef Extrodinaire so I am treated to many masterpieces. I on the other hand lack talent in this arena.
