My Go-to Crockpot Recipes for Thanksgiving
|
Hi Reader, First, thank you for the chili feedback! I went with a sleeve of saltines & a packet of cornbread mix. I think it went well. My slow cooker gets plenty of use around here, and Thanksgiving is definitely not an exception. So many classic Thanksgiving recipes work great in the slow cooker, like mashed potatoes, stuffing, green bean casserole, and so many others. You can even make turkey breast or dessert in there. If you’re trying to make Thanksgiving dinner a little easier this year, these recipes are a great place to start. Crockpot Recipes for Thanksgiving

Here’s what’s up for grabs: Slow cooker chili, made & frozen Homemade pancake mix with cinnamon honey butter Sugar cookie dough, prepped & frozen, with sprinkles & cookie cutters...
Hi Reader, Happy Sunday! We kicked off the holiday season this afternoon with my cousin’s annual “Favorite Things” party. Everyone brings a favorite thing (this year’s budget was $10-15) and goes home with a pile of everyone else’s. I brought this cute little salt cellar filled with my favorite salt, plus these wipes that I've repurchased several times. If you need a gift idea under $15, steal mine. Now for this week’s dinners. It’s dark by 5:30, and my brain reads that as “pajamas and...
