Melt 2 Tablespoons sweet butter slowly over medium heat, stir in 2 Tablespoons flour to make a smooth paste. Add 1 cup chicken broth (the real thing, not boillon cubes), 1 cup low fat milk, 2 teaspoons cooking sherry, salt to taste, and 1 small bay leaf. Cook and stir until sauce begins to thicken. Add raw turkey, mushrooms and onions. Simmer the mixture over medium-low heat for approximately 15 minutes, uncovered, stirring several times.
