11. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
12. Take the drumsticks from the broth. Shred the meat with two forks, removing bones and sinew.
13. Add the turkey to the mashed potatoes along with the corn. Strain the broth into a bowl and add the leftover vegetables to the turkey and potato mixture. Stir everything together with a fork.
14. In the same pot, melt 1/2 cup butter. Stir in 1/4 cup flour until smooth, then slowly whisk in the turkey broth. Cook until thickened, adding water if needed.

• 200 g pasta (spaghetti, fettuccine, or penne)
• 2-4 slices of Apple Smoked Bacon
• 250 g shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cups kale, chopped (remove tough stems)

• Arrowroot powder
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2. Add the shiitake mushrooms to the pan and cook until they are soft but not mushy. Stir in the garlic, cover the pan, and let it cook for 2 minutes so the flavors mix without burning the garlic. Next, add the shrimp, season with tamari and black pepper, and cook until the shrimp turn pink.
3. Now, add the chopped kale to the shrimp in the buttery garlic sauce. Pour in the chicken bone broth and cook until the kale is tender but not mushy. Cover the pan for a few minutes to help the greens wilt down.
