Turkey Breast Recipe

Last night I cooked a turkey breast and I couldn't find a recipe that I loved.  My family doesn't do spices (like the green ones very much) so as I browsed through numerous turkey recipes I immediately started weeding them out.  Then I came across one and just omitted a bunch of the spices.  Here is my version of a turkey recipe.  I used a frozen turkey breast that I thawed in the refrigerator for 2 days.

Ingredients:
Turkey Breast
1/2 cup stick butter or margarine, melted
Garlic Salt (didn't measure, just sprinkled some on the turkey and sprinkled some in the butter)
Pepper (didn't measure, did the same as with the garlic salt)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place turkey in shallow pan (I used a square baking pan).  Brush/pour butter over the turkey.  I think it would also be yummy to inject the butter into the turkey.  Sprinkle the turkey with a little garlic salt and pepper if desired.  (Of course I desired...I love garlic salt!!!)  Bake turkey for 2 1/2 hours.  Baste with more butter as needed throughout cooking process.  Baste again while you let the turkey sit for a few minutes after cooking!!!

Even Abby ate the turkey...Ryan didn't because he was sick and was sleeping.  He was sad that he missed the cranberry sauce.
