Quickie Turkey A La  King

Keep a supply of cooked frozen turkey or chicken on hand and unexpected company will never catch you unprepared.  Buy turkey when it is cheaper, cook and cut into bite size pieces. And freeze in packages of 1 ½- 2 cups each, with date on each package.

1 ½ cups cooked turkey or chicken
1 (2 oz.) jar of pimientos, drained
1 (10 ½ oz.) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1/2 tsp. Dried green onion
¼ tsp. Paprika
1/8 tsp. White or black ground pepper
2 Tbls. Chicken bouillon
1 Tbls. Chopped fresh, dried or frozen parsley (parsley and paprika to put on top)
1 (4 oz) can of mushrooms or a few fresh ones chopped
Toast, corn bread squares or English muffins to put creamed mixture on the top.

Mix all ingredients well together except the bread.  Stir well, may be heated over a double boiler, microwave, or in pan on top of the stove. Be sure to stir well, until hot.  Or place all in a baking dish in heated oven of 325 D. for ½ an hour. Serve while hot.  Easy and tasty.  A few left over vegetables could be added.

Garlic  Dip

This is a dip that I made when the children were young. They each enjoyed their small dish with dip and pretzels. If you like the garlic good and strong use 4 cloves of garlic.  But, most people would maybe be happier with 2-3 cloves of fresh garlic, cut very fine.  To a softened package of Cream Cheese in medium bowl, add the chopped garlic, two Tbls. of milk, stir well with fork, then add two more Tbls. of milk, for a little thinner dip add two more Tbls. of milk stirring then chill covered for at least ½ an hour.Garlic is very good for us, but remember it takes about 24 hrs. for the rather loud smell  to go away.
