I needed to use a healthy but very boring (on its own) turkey breast. The recipe below was a combination of two other recipes plus a bit of imagination. It was made on Valentine’s Day, and I had an inspiration to shape it as a giant heart. Red fig mustard gave it a nice reddish glow. It was very good, both warm and cold the next day. It definitely was not boring. And it was extremely simple. Serve with some green salad on the side.
