A wonderful easy recipe for turkey gravy just in time for the holidays! *In order to have enough drippings (and your turkey to be tender and juicy!), I always add about 3 cups water to the bottom of my roaster. For large roasters make sure there is at least 1" covering the bottom. This gravy turns out every time. PROMISE! :D Happy Thanksgiving! And don't fret!! It only comes once a year... ;) (photo from bing images)
