Preparation

Step 1

1. Turn the slow cooker on High.

2. Rinse the turkey breast in cold water and place it in the bottom of the slow cooker. Top with chopped garlic, onion, celery, carrots, squash. Season the goodies with sea salt, pepper and Italian herbs. Add the vinegar. Pour fresh cold water over the turkey and veggies until submerged.

3. Cover and cook on high until the turkey falls apart using a fork. This could be anywhere from 4 to 5 hours, depending upon the size of your Crock Pot and the size of your turkey breast.

4. Remove the piece of skin and discard. Pull apart the cooked turkey into pieces, using two forks or a big spoon.

5. Stir and serve with a sprinkling of fresh chopped parsley.
