Turkey and Stuffing done Easy

Looking for an easy Thanksgiving dinner? I found this recipe from Rachel Ray. I will say that we tried the yummy cranberry orange stuffing and it is super easy and yummy! I found the cranberry muffins at Whole Foods. They were a little hard to find but once I found them the rest was easy. I didn't try the turkey and gravy from this recipe...I like to cook the whole bird. You can click on the link above for the recipe. Let me know what you think if you give it a try. Also send me any other quick Thanksgiving recipes you might find. Happy Turkey Day!!

Zucchini Casserole

Here is another great recipe from my college roommate Jen. This is a vegetarian dish with a meat option.

Zucchini Casserole:
2lbs zucchini and/or yellow squash
1 box cornbread stuffing
1 can cream of celery soup
8 oz sour cream
2C shredded cheddar
1 can sliced water chestnuts

*optional chopped cooked chicken

Cook stuffing according to package directions. Boil sliced zucchini until tender. Drain. Mix all ingredients except 1C stuffing and 1/2C cheddar. Spread mixture in a greased 9x13 pan. Top with remaining stuffing/cheese. Bake at 350 for 20-30 min or until headed all the way through.

Italian Crockpot Chicken

I love crock pot recipes! This one came from my college roommate. It tastes like the creamiest Chicken Alfredo.

Italian Crockpot Chicken:
1 to 1.5 lbs of chicken breasts/tenders
1 package of dry Italian Seasoning (found in the salad dressing aisle)
1/2 C white wine (or chicken stock)
1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup
4 oz cream cheese with chives
2T butter

Brown chicken on the stove top. Line a crock pot (makes the clean-up so easy!). Combine all ingredients and cook on low for 4 hours. Serve over your favorite pasta - egg noodles, angel hair, etc.

It really is that easy! Thanks Jen!
