TURKEY AND KIDNEY BEAN CASSEROLE
2 turkey drumsticks
2 large carrots, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1 bay leaf
4 cups water

1 teaspoon canola oil
1/2 cup soft bread crumbs, torn into coarse pieces
1 cup onion, chopped
1 (19 ounces) can white kidney beans (cannellini), rinsed and drained
salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste)
Place drumsticks, carrots, and bay leaf in large saucepan or deep skillet; add 4 cups water. Cook, covered, over medium-low heat about 1 hour. Cool in broth and reserve broth.
Cook turkey bacon in a large, heavy skillet. Add oil to bacon fat to measure 1 teaspoon fat. Add crumbs; saute 1 minute; remove from skillet; reserve. Add onions to skillet. Cook, covered, over low heat, until golden, about 10 minutes.
