Confession time: I’ve never cooked a turkey. But seriously, what is the smallest size you can get a turkey? Those things are huge! What do I want with like 20lbs of turkey meat? Most often on the holidays we’re at my husbands’ parents or my parents’ house and my mom or his mom takes care of the turkey, and I’m usually slotted in for dessert (surprised?). Someday, I will conquer the whole turkey. For now? Turkey breasts. I love them! Turkey breasts are awesome for a small gathering or a family dinner when you want plenty of leftovers (and I am a leftover lover). I am also a slow cooker lover. I think slow cookers are awesome every day, every season, but particularly around the holidays! Those are the times when you want something super delicious, you might be entertaining family, you might want to use your oven for other dishes, and you might actually want to visit with the people you’re entertaining! I love using apricot preserves in all kinds of savory dishes where I want a little sweetness — they have such a mild, sweet flavor that goes with so many things! (Like Mongolian Beef maybe, or Chicken Chow Mein?) Create an account easily save your favorite content, so you never forget a recipe again.
