STUFFING!!! OMG I love stuffing. I used to eat Stove Top for dinner before I met DH.

I love stuffed mushrooms and we also make an awesome quiche as a side dish.

Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

    * 5 pounds red potatoes, cut into chunks
    * 1 tablespoon minced garlic, or to taste
    * 3 cubes chicken bouillon
    * 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
    * 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
    * 1/2 cup butter
    * salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a large pot of lightly salted boiling water, cook the potatoes, garlic, and bouillon until potatoes are tender but firm, about 15 minutes. Drain, reserving water. In a bowl, mash potatoes with sour cream and cream cheese, adding reserved water as needed to attain desired consistency.

2. Transfer the potato mixture to a slow cooker, cover, and cook on Low for 2 to 3 hours (I have left them in the crock pot for as long as 6 hrs). Just before serving, stir in butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.

(I don't always add the butter at the end because I think it makes the potatoes a little watery and they don't need it.)

Thanksgiving is ALL about the side dishes! My 3 favs are the stuffing (must be my Southern grandma's homemade recipe!), green bean casserole (original Campbell's soup recipe), and sweet potato casserole! YUM!

grazy · November 2009

I love Stove Top stuffing! It is my favorite.?

WifeOfARedhead · November 2009

OMG! Greenbean Casserole all the way! The classic Campbell soup recipe works for me! Soooooo good!

SweetDahlia · November 2009

I like my mom's cranberry salad. It's so fresh. My inlaws freak out of I don't bring pumpkin roll.

LCB34 · November 2009

Green bean casserole.

Ginger71 · November 2009

It's a tie for me: Sweet potato pudding with pecan topping and stuffing. We don't eat a lot of carbs or fattening food in this house so I have been dreaming about Thanksgiving for weeks now!
