This is David's recipe for cooking a turkey, as dictated to his teacher.
Dad and Grandpa's Turkey
By David H.
Dad is a turkey hunter. He has a big gun. He shoots the turkey. Then he takes off the feathers and makes a little hole to get out all the blood. Then he brings it to our house for grandpa to grill. It's a little big, so grandpa cuts the sides off.
To grill the turkey:
Put 40 sprinkles of cinnamon on the turkey; that's the special ingredient. Cook it on the grill for 60 minutes. The grill is 11 degrees hot so the turkey doesn't catch on fire. It's done when it has a lot of black lines on it. Use a special glove to take it off the grill. Cut it with a big fork. It's very yummy!
(All of the children's recipes were funny/sweet/cute. But David was the only one who managed to include guns and blood in his.)
