Notes & Tips
Every diner I ever sat in had something like this on the menu — usually wedged between the liver and onions and the blue plate special. Hot turkey on white bread with good brown gravy is the kind of food that doesn't need improvement. Just needs to be made right. Use thick white bread — thin stuff turns to mush before you get it to the table. The onion-based gravy here beats anything out of a can. Don't skip it.
