MAMAW'S CREAMED TURKEY OVER TOAST
The day after Thanksgiving you can achieve the very pinnacle of comfort food! My mom ended up having to bake several turkeys a year just so we could get this stuff. Some very knowledgeable 'Zaarites helped me to ressurect it as the recipe had been lost.

Steps:
- In a large no-stick skillet, begin heating the milk, margarine and chicken stock over medium heat.
- Whisk in the flour right away, eliminating all lumps, and as it comes to a boil, it should thicken.
- Add the salt and pepper. (Black pepper is okay as a substitute).
- As it thickens, toss in the chopped turkey and stir carefully as to not break up the chunks too much.
- If it gets too thick, just add some milk and stir.
- As soon as the mix is thick enough to your liking, it is done. Turn off the heat and cover until serving.
- Serve over slices of toast or, make up some of your favorite biscuits instead.
- If you have some left-over turkey broth from the day before when the turkey was baked, use that instead of chicken stock.
- Note: the more dark meat, the better. It really adds to the flavor of this dish.
