slow cooker thanksgiving recipes with  ingredients or less

Turkey day is fast approaching guys. If you haven't already nailed down your menu, it's about time to! Since we're running out of time, I thought it would be fun and hopefully helpful to put together a list of Thanksgiving slow cooker recipes with just 5 ingredients or less.

Keeping it simple and freeing up your oven will help you nail your meal! A couple of weeks ago, I cooked a whole turkey in my Crock-Pot, so now I'm truly convinced you can pull almost anything off in that magic pot of wonder.

From whole turkeys to your favorite traditional Thanksgiving side dishes, I think I got it covered. Cranberry Sauce? Sweet potatoes or my favorite... broccoli and cheese, check out these quick and simple recipes!  Just a heads up, I didn't factor in spices as part of my ingredient count. I think it's safe to say we all have salt, pepper, cinnamon and other common spices.

The 5 ingredients are based on food ingredients and not spices.  Hope that totally works for you! Enjoy and please come back and share your favorites!
