Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Place the turkey on a roasting pan and pat the skin dry with paper towels. Rub the herb mixture all over the turkey, making sure to coat it evenly. Roast the turkey in the preheated oven for about 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let the turkey rest for 20 minutes before carving and serving.

Boil the sweet potatoes in a pot of water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and pepper to the potatoes. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine quinoa and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until quinoa is cooked and water is absorbed. Fluff the quinoa with a fork and transfer to a large bowl. Add dried cranberries, parsley, almonds, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to the quinoa. Mix well. Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the cored apples in a baking dish. Drizzle honey over the apples and sprinkle with cinnamon. Bake the apples for 30-35 minutes until tender. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped walnuts before serving.
