If you aren’t using your slow cooker for at least one recipe this Thanksgiving, you’re doing it wrong. Honestly. Make it easy on yourself. You’ll be juggling so many dishes that it will be a huge relief to have one slow cooker recipe that you can just set and forget until it’s time for the feast.
Slow cooker recipes are amazing at any time of year, but over the holidays, you’ll really start to thank the stars for your slow cooker. It’s really, really hard to get a slow cooker recipe wrong, so you can pretty much count on it. Plus, it keeps itself warm, so you don’t have to worry about your cousin Tom being an hour and a half late for dinner. He can have some of the sweet potatoes, right? (Like, come on Tom, you knew dinner was at 7.)

I’ll be making a simple chocolate fudge as a snack for everyone to try. I like making snack foods for others to nibble on besides the main meal.
I made up a recipe that I called Cheesy Scalloped Sweet Potatoes. Had never made them before but they were a hit! Everyone loved them and they want me to make them again for Christmas dinner so I guess I have started a new tradition in our family! 🙂 It’s a simple recipe of sweet potatoes, shredded sharp cheddar cheese and cream cheese. I actually wrote it down just in case it was a hit and I may have forgotten it. I will have to post it here at some point if that is possible?? 🙂
