Makes 2 roulades

“There never was such a Christmas dinner as they had that day. The fat turkey was a sight
to behold, when Hannah sent him up, stuffed, browned, and decorated . . .”

Turkey roulade is an elegant alternative to the traditional roasted holiday turkey. Feel free to
experiment with your favorite dried fruits and nuts for the filling to make it your own!
