He published two leather bound cookbooks that we received as a gift and the following is from one of the volumes. I can't think of a better way to utilize leftover turkey...

Thanks Lindy for this wonderful submission to The Kountry Kitchen. I only have one of the volumes from this wonderful actor and gourmet cook. Now that I know there were two... I'll be looking! Kountry Cook Posted to recipelu-digest Volume 01 Number 405 by molony <molony@...> on Dec 27, 1997
