We loved this! I never would have though of combining broth, balsamic vinegar, nutmeg and pepper into a sauce, but it works very well in this. I substituted chicken for the turkey because chicken was on sale, and I used broccoli instead of leeks because my daughter and husband dislike onions. Otherwise, I did the recipe as written and we really enjoyed our dinner tonight. Thanks Whisper, this was very good!

I live near Rochester NY with my husband and our 18-year-old cat, Fluffy. It's actually Fluffy's house, but he allows us to live here as long as we pamper him and feed him generously. Our daughter, Kree, whom some of you know from Zaar, is also living with us again while she begins a new business venture in real estate. She's the one who got me hooked on Zaar and taught me to try new recipes rather than stay in the cooking rut I was in.
In my free time I like to take long rides or sit by the water, both of which I find very relaxing. I also like to do counted cross-stitch and read. I dabble in photography, always looking for that elusive 'perfect' shot. I did more cooking before I started working full-time, and plan to again when I retire (still years away, but dreaming).
