Ingredients

• 7-8 slices of oven-roasted turkey – the deli will happily slice thick slices for you to make this meal. I asked them to use blade number 5

• unsalted butter – this is used to make a roux for your gravy
• all-purpose flour – this is combined with melted butter as a base for the gravy
• water – you’ll add this to the butter and flour and whisk it over medium heat while making the gravy
• chicken bouillon cubes – this is added for flavor
• chicken rotisserie seasoning – a little extra seasoning for the gravy

• fill it with stuffing and roll it up
• place it seam side down or secure it with a wooden toothpick
• continue with all of your turkey slices
• bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes
• while that is baking, make the gravy
• make a roux with melted butter and flour
• add water and whisk
• add the bouillon and seasoning
• continue to whisk until it is the thickness and texture that you want
• if needed: strain any lumps out of gravy that might not have thinned out with whisking
