Smoked Turkey Pate Recipe

I love the idea of using this pate as a Thanksgiving appetizer. If you don't want to cook a whole smoked turkey recipe for your special meal (or, in fact, if you do) this is a good way to spark your guests' craving for the turkey to come.

Ingredients:
1 C minced, cooked smoked turkey
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
2 tbsp. softened butter (salted)
1 clove minced garlic
3/4 tsp. liquid smoke (optional)
2 tbsp. wood aged brandy
Sliced raw apples, for garnish
Fresh lemon juice, for apples

Instructions: 1. Put everything but apple slices and lemon into the blender or food processor and blend until you get a smooth, spreadable consistency.

2. Refrigerate the mixture for several hours (at least 4, but best overnight) so the flavors evolve.

3. Dip the apple slices in lemon-water to keep them from browning. Lay them out decoratively in circle around the bowl of pate (along with crackers and bread slices) and enjoy!
