Quick little trip to the store, Turkey thighs

[Carol]

So I survey'd the fridge with a few things I knew we were out of, then
told Don and took off. Our normal day is Thursday (60 and over, 5% off
on everything, even beer/smokes.

In the back of my mind is the Turkey thighs might be in now.

Got some good Bok Choy, a nice small tender leek, red cabbage, oyster
mushroom etc. Eggs were what we were out of and milk. I didn't see
Turkey thighs but asked at the counter and they were in an odd spot but
yes, got 2 packages, 2 thighs each per package, Since they are
seaonal, they don't have a dedicated spot and often have to ask. They
also had some 10 packages of Turkey necks for soup/broth.

Not a great price but HT had a 2.99lb sale so not terrible. 1 thigh
feeds the 2 of us with enough to make turkey soup after. It's shipped
frozen so have to wait for the pack to defrost in the fridge.

What seasonings do you folks normally use in Turkey soup?

I've never made turkey soup and wouldn't using thighs, but
that's just me as I'm not a fan of fowl thighs. But I'd
say the same seasonings you'd use for chicken soup.

However, it is in my plans to make chicken, rice, and mushroom
soup later this week. It calls for thyme, parsley, garlic,
and salt and heavy cream.

Easy Turkey Soup
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 30 mins

This Easy Turkey Soup with cabbage and turmeric is the perfect way to
use up leftover turkey! Naturally Gluten Free and Low Carb.

Course: Soup
Cuisine: American
Ingredients
2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (can use butter if not avoiding
dairy)
1 cup diced yellow onion
1 cup diced celery
1 cup diced carrot
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1 T kosher salt
3/4 tsp ground black pepper
10 sprigs fresh thyme
1 pound green cabbage shredded
8 ounces white button mushrooms stems trimmed and sliced
8 cups Pacific Foods Organic Bone Broth Turkey
1 large dried bay leaf
1 handful fresh parsley
1 pound cooked turkey meat cubed

I'm thinking to remove the skin, leave bones as are (debone when soft
enough and cooled enough then shred and add meat back in). Thyme and
parsley will be dried. More black pepper (we are black pepper fans).

Starting with almost defrosted Turkey thigh.... Will add in garlic
which was missing. Chicken broth as didn't see Turkey. I'm short on
celery but will use some of the whites off a Boy Choy to make up for it.

It's going! I used nappa cabbage, about 3 cups worth (I'd used up the
green) and combined it with some 3/4 cup red cabbage (hope it comes out
pretty). Swapped 'seafood mushroom' (looks like Enoki but thicker and
longer).

I ended up using both thighs as once the bone is removed, it should be
just about 1lb meat,

For the first time, used the store brand chicken stock (boxed). It
actually has flavor! Looks to need 3 hour simmer with a break in the
middle to fish out the meat and debone. If I were to add something, it
would be a few handfuls of corn kernals.

corn. But yes, do add garlic.

That would work, but I didn't think of it and wanted this tonight
(grin).

It came out fine but the purple cabbage made for a wierd red/brown
broth. I did think twice on the cabbage as I'm not really a cabbage
soup person other than Bok Choy (cabbage family item granted). I use
the stems of Bok Choy like others use celery and they stay crunchy for
a long time cooking.

It's possible our Aldi here and HT may have it too, but I wasn't going
to go out to look. The chicken worked fine.

Grin, got the garlic (used dry granulated). Cabbage soup didn't sound
overly appealing but picture was good so tried it. Cabbage family
plants appeal to Don and it's hard to get veggies into him. I tend to
add corn to create a colorful contrast.

This came out great! Still looking for that poor bayleaf though! It
came out as a soft dark meat (much superior to breast if you ask me).

Not a great price but HT had a 2.99lb sale so not terrible.

What do you have to do to get the sale price?

Store card. ALL the big stores here require them for the sales price.

Jill really hates the idea but even Publix and Walmart have them here.
It seems a big city thing since I get comments from others on if they
have one or not. They use the data to target likely products. I'd be
a tiny byte or so of data that says 'add more fresh veggie choices'.

Walmart charges annual fee that's pretty high (BJs and Sams are
cheaper). Most are free (Food Lion, Harris Teeter, Kroger, Fresh Mart).

Basically here you learn the sales rotation and stock up when on sale.
If your shopping habits are to only get what's on a list and think you
are 'saving' then you'd be doing it wrong here. Common basics are what
you'd be over spending on.

Ex: (Doesn't mind if you buy this specific item, insert any staple you
want). : canned beans (black and cannelinni for me). I know I'll use
1 a week at least. I know every 5 weeks they are 1/2 price. Limit 10.
I get 5 black bean and 5 'other'. I never pay full price. A person
who doesn't get sales rotation, will be happy with 2 cans that week,
then pay full price the next 4 weeks....

Publix does not have a "card". Walmart has something called Walmart+
but that's not the same thing, either. You don't have to show a card to
get sale prices when you buy anything in the store. The Walmart+
membership does include free home grocery delivery. I've taken
advantage of that on more than one occasion.

Publix does have an app though. Not needed for sale prices. I get an
occasional offer of $3 off a $60 order. I use it to pay as it is tied
to my debit card and I use the phone to pay.

The app is handy if you want to find where an item is. You can search
and it tells you the aisle.

Creating an online shopping list (not using a phone) will give you the

sales for meat is without an app. Most of the sale items in the weekly
fliers are crap I am not interested in buying, anyway.

This is the truth! I frequently just open the meat section in my daily,

listing their offers. Easy as pie!

Humm, what I read is it's tied to prices? Like I said, haven't been
there yet. If I have to load my credit card on my phone, that's a deal
breaker for me.

What you don't have exposed on your cell phone if it's stolen, can't be

Both my phone and the app are password/fingerprint protected so I don't

I have a lot of other banking and CC info tied to apps on the phone.

show a card to get sale prices when you buy anything in the
store.  The Walmart+ membership does include free home grocery
delivery.  I've taken advantage of that on more than one occasion.
Jill

Publix does have an app though. Not needed for sale prices. I get an
occasional offer of $3 off a $60 order. I use it to pay as it is
tied to my debit card and I use the phone to pay.
The app is handy if you want to find where an item is. You can
search and it tells you the aisle.

Humm, what I read is it's tied to prices? Like I said, haven't been
there yet. If I have to load my credit card on my phone, that's a deal
breaker for me.
What you don't have exposed on your cell phone if it's stolen, can't be
used against you.

Both my phone and the app are password/fingerprint protected so I don't worry
about it. The card is not stored on the phone but by Publix.
I have a lot of other banking and CC info tied to apps on the phone.

Beware Ed! You are not as safe as you think you are.

Not a great price but HT had a 2.99lb sale so not terrible.

What do you have to do to get the sale price?

Store card.  ALL the big stores here require them for the sales price.
Jill really hates the idea but even Publix and Walmart have them here.

This is very smart. Sometimes Jill, you are a tough cookie! Likewise, my
phone has no banking information, and it is a regular, old button phone. I
can leave it on the street, and no one will touch it. If I drop it, no
important information is lost and it cost me 30 USD or so, so no big deal.

I feel very sorry for the young kids dropping 2000 USD iphones with their
entire lives on them. Then they start to cry. I've seen it!

And that's fine Jill. It's just not the same here and the more I think
about them wanting me to use a cell to pay with all the invasiveness of
that, the less I like Publix.

Are you sure your HT does the card? It would be good if they don't
since it's not common where you are. Ah well, either way looks like we
won't ever be using the same stores or be familiar with it. Not with
their invasive practices.

You need a "loyalty card", of course! Harris Teeter (aka HT) won't give
you that price if you aren't signed up to let them give you the lower price.

Yup, but it's not really a 'loyalty' card really. I have all but
Publix's card here and that's only because I've not gone yet. That's
true of most folks I've talked to locally. They are building a Publix
near me but I don't think it's open yet. The other Publix is in
Suffolk and would take about 45 minutes each way to go.

HT is my primary but depending on what I need and am at, will dictate
what other store I use.

I need to get to the Asian grocery for a few things I use (Pho
seasoning cubes, the spices not the actual broth on their own).
Mushroom types either not sold or too expensive elsewhere. Veggies not
sold elsewhere. Frozen whole squid (used the last of the tentacles!),
frozen mussels from NZ at half the price of other sorces and so on. In
the way back, Krogers is perfectly on the same side of the street if I
need a few things the Asian market doesn't sell or is more expensive
(butter, flour, milk, cheese, eggs other than balut).

Anyways, that's the way of big cities. I don't know exactly where
others are as far as city size. Matthew surprised me at how little
choice he has in stores for food.
