Good morning, readers.

We have one shopping request: where to purchase a frozen turkey breast; and three cooking ones: Cuban bread, broccoli soup like the soup served at Panera, and freezable vegetable casseroles that have no flour or bread crumbs in them.

Nancy Sisk, who recommends turkey breasts cooked in a crock pot, wants to know where to purchase the frozen turkey breast. Melynne York, preparing for a wonderful week of holiday company, wants to bake easy crusty Cuban bread and serve it with soup. She’s got a ham in the freezer and wants to pair it “with a vegetable casserole, but I have guests who don’t eat gluten or sugar, so I want recipes I can make ahead that will work for them.”


“Save that ham bone!” and read the subject of a recent missive from Everett Kidder, who explained: “Here is one recipe for a great white bean, carrot and ham soup that my family has loved for years. I got it from the Wakulla Springs Lodge in Florida.
