butter
🥗Healthier: olive oil
💰Cheaper: margarine
Olive oil reduces saturated fat while adding flavor.
whole turkey
💰Cheaper: turkey breast

chicken broth
🥗Healthier: vegetable broth

fresh herbs
💰Cheaper: dried herbs
Dried herbs are more accessible and have a longer shelf life.
Prepare the turkey by buttering the inside and seasoning the outside.
Make the stuffing on the stovetop and let it cool enough to handle.
Cut an apple in half and core it to remove the seeds and hard parts.
Place the turkey breast side down to keep it moist during roasting.
Stuff the turkey from the rear side with the prepared stuffing, using hands for easier handling.
Insert the cored apple into the cavity to hold the stuffing inside.
Skewer the tail end of the turkey to the top to secure the stuffing.
Insert a meat thermometer into the muscle of the turkey for accurate temperature readings.
Preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C).
Roast the turkey upside down for 5 to 7 minutes to brown the top, watching to prevent burning.
Cover the turkey loosely with a triangle of aluminum foil after browning to finish roasting.
