Turkey with gravy is a classic dish often associated with American and European holiday celebrations, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. This hearty meal features roasted turkey, typically seasoned with herbs and spices, accompanied by a savory gravy made from the turkey drippings, flour, and stock. Turkey is a lean protein source, rich in vitamins like B6 and B12, as well as minerals such as zinc and selenium, which support immunity and metabolism. However, the gravy can be high in sodium and fat, depending on preparation methods and added ingredients like butter or cream. When served in moderation and paired with nutrient-rich sides such as steamed vegetables or whole grains, turkey with gravy can be a satisfying meal suited for special occasions. For a healthier twist, opt for low-sodium stock and minimal added fats in the gravy preparation.
