Step #4 Add onion, & garlic & cook this until softened, celery, about 5 mins.
Step #5 Add mushrooms & continue to cook this until mushrooms have released their liquid & are soft, about 4 mins.

Step #11 -=Turkey Roulade=-.
Step #12 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step #13 On a large cutting board, place turkey breast on top of plastic wrap & cut so that it opens up to one large flat piece of even thickness.
Step #14 Cover up with extra plastic wrap & lb to an even thickness of just under 1/2-inch.
Step #15 Remove plastic wrap from top of turkey & spread stuffing evenly over middle portion of turkey breast & roll it up, using the plastic wrap to help keep the roll in place.
Step #16 On a large piece of parchment paper, lay the slices of bacon down so that they just overlap.
Step #17 The resulting "blanket" of bacon should be long enough to cover the entire length of the turkey roulade.
Step #18 Lift the turkey roulade onto the bacon slices & carefully remove the plastic wrap.
Step #19 Using the parchment as a handle, carefully roll up roulade, "tootsie-roll" fashion.
Step #20 Twist ends tightly.
Step #21 Place this roll on top of a large piece of aluminum foil wrap & roll entire roulade, paper & all, with the aluminum foil wrap.
Step #22 Crimp ends closed.
Step #23 Bake in a roasting pan with a rack for 1 1/2 hrs, or until internal temperature reads 155°F.
Step #24 Let roulade rest for 15 mins, then slice into 1-inch thick slices & serve.
