I have lost my recipe book that it came with and would like some wonderful recipes. Thanks for your help.
Answer
Whole Frozen Turkey (10 pounds)
Buying a frozen turkey and making it in less than 2 1/2 hours is so easy and is an unexpected treat for the whole family.
Unwrap the frozen turkey and rinse in cold water. While still wet, season the outside as desired and place on liner pan or 1" rack breast side down. Nu-Wave on HI for 60 minutes. (At this point, the gizzards inside should be defrosted and you can remove for later use. Season or fill cavity with vegetables at this point). Turn turkey breast side up Nu-Wave on HI for another 75-90 minutes or until thermometer reads 165°F. If the skin is becoming too brown, cover with tin foil just as you would a conventional oven.
Let the bird sit as usual and use drippings from pan to make delicious gravy.
(If you want to make up to a 15 pound bird, see our extender ring.)

Any suggestions on what to eat for lunch?
Princess
I know it's pathetic but I'm 17 and can't cook. Anyways, my mom ALWAYS offers sandwiches and claims I turn everything down, but that's because it's always the same thing. Then if I say "no to everything" she goes to Wendy's. I'm tired of eating there because she literally gets it at least 4 times a week. It's giving me break outs which is the main issue. I'm not fat by any means but I'm going to the gym and want to achieve the look I want without all this junk. I also need to gain weight. She then offers yogurt which I don't even consider lunch nor is it helping me gain weight. Then she goes on to salad. Again, doesn't help with weight. I also have steak pretty much every night for dinner. Any suggestions?
Answer
I am having a baked potato for lunch today, but that is kinda a splurge on the calories.
My favorite lunch is cottage cheese with fruit, preferably canned unsweetened peaches.And a few soda crackers to go with it.
a wrap that you make yourself, with chicken and cheese and veggies would be healthy.
I buy chicken patties, and buns, and make my own chicken sandwiches. I get the patties for $2, and the buns for $1. A smear of mayo, and it is good, and cheap. Add cheese if you want to.
Make your own healthy tacos. Use ground up turkey or chicken, spice it up so you can't tell it is not hamburger. use the low cal re-fried beans. Diet sour cream, and some lettuce, tomatoes, and some mexican cheese would be good.
Homemade soup, like vegetable, or chili. Make a batch, and put it in the refrigerator, take out servings as you need them. Fix some unsweetened cornbread, or use crackers.
A healthy hot dog, kosher beef, with low cal toppings like onion, mustard, ketchup, relish, pickles, or kraut. Splurge a little and put a little chili over it.
Having steak for supper is bad. Too much cholesterol.
Learn how to prepare chicken. Saute chicken breasts, serve with some stove top stuffing and some veggies. Find other recipes that you might like, like chicken parm,
Go to Kraft Foods for help with quick and easy meals.
Look around in the store, see what is available for a balanced supper. Check out the banquet boxed meals, and Hamburger helper type things.
and beware of salad, the dressing and some of the toppings can have many calories, 1000, or 1500, according to a recent article.
One thing, your diet, and the grease and chocolate in it, does not cause acne. But a balanced diet would help heal it.
there are so many sites that give cooking lessons, on tape, that there really is not an excuse for not knowing how to cook, unless you are a straight "A" student, and taking a big course load, and play team sports too.
Go to allrecipes, or Betty Crocker. Cook's Illustrated is excellent, they tell you why they do what they do[but some of the site costs money].
When in doubt, go to the brand name website. Philadelphia cream cheese, Nabisco, Kraft, and on and on.
I wanted a recipe for catfish, so I went to the catfish farmers. Quite a number of free recipes.
