1 1/2 lbs | 681g / 24oz | Boneless turkey breast |
Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste | ||
1 | Dry gravy mix | |
1 cup | 237ml | Dry white wine |

Cut off any fat, season with pepper and brown whole piece of turkey in skillet sprayed with pam. Also add onion and brown. Make sure that turkey is browned on all sides and ends. Turn with spoons, so the breast is not pricked with a fork.
Spray crock pot with pam and put carrots on the bottom, next add potatoes, turnips and onions. Place turkey on top of vegetables. Mix gravy with the wine and 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water. Pour on top of the turkey and vegetables.
While browning turkey, turn the crock pot on HIGH to heat, first spraying with the pam. You may also heat the gravy mixture before pouring on turkey and vegetables. Cover and cook on HIGH for 2 hours and then turn to LOW for 3 hours. You could put it on longer on the LOW setting. Just depends what your schedule is. Check every so often to make sure turkey is moist. Thicken gravy if necessary.
To Serve: Slice turkey and put gravy on top and serve with the vegetables. This would serve 2 to 3, but the turkey does shrink, so one has to determine how large a serving they want to serve.
A 4-ounce serving of turkey has 150 calories with 35 from fat. Fat grams are 4 per 4 oz serving with 1 gram being saturated. This is the only fat in the dish.
