The longer you take to slowly cook your gravy, the more the flavor will develop. I recommend starting your gravy before the turkey and finishing after you take the turkey out of the oven.

California Farm Turkey Gravy California Farm Turkey Gravy
You can make lots of mild turkey gravy from the turkey trim, organs, wingtips, and backbone, and it freezes well. Plus you get to eat the whole bird. I usually post this recipe when making turkey, but since you can make it just as well from leftovers and turkey carcass, here it is for reference. Freezes well all year.#GlobalApron

Leftovers...my specialty! This is a switch up on the traditional Chicken & rice. I added veggies since I had them, but it's not necessary for this to be delicious!
