A hearty and low-fat stew that makes good use of turkey leftovers.
1 lb turkey breast; cooked and shredded (about 2 cups) 12 oz cranberries; fresh, rinsed and picked through 1-15 oz can great northern beans; drained & rinsed ˝ large onion; sliced thin 1 C corn; frozen 4 oz mushroom; fresh, sliced 4 C chicken or turkey broth; low-sodium 1 C dry white wine 1 Tbls thyme; fresh, chopped (or substitute 1 tsp dried) 2 Tbls honey 2 Tbls butter Salt and pepper, to taste
Melt the butter in a large, heavy pot over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until soft (about 5 minutes). Add the mushrooms and corn and cook for another 10 minutes.
Add the white wine. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a spoon to loosen any caramelized bits. Add the stock, turkey, cranberries, honey, and thyme. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for 15 minutes. Most of the cranberries will burst. Add the beans and cook an additional 10 minutes.
Reduce the heat. Season with salt and pepper; serve with cornbread or another bread.
