Crockpot Turkey Casserole -Thanksgiving Leftovers #goodcookkitchenexprt Recipe

Want something yummy that you can just throw together and forget about?  Well I have one for you!

This is great for using up those Thanksgiving leftovers.  You can use your turkey, your green beans, and serve over your leftover mashed potatoes!

For this recipe I use my Cream of Mushroom Soup recipe or if you want to use one that is dairy free please follow what I'm doing below.  You will want to check that out or if you don't need gluten free feel free to use two cans of the condensed cream of mushroom soup and one can of milk(my mom has used this recipe and that is what she did to get the same consistency).

You will need:

4 cups chopped turkey bits
1 lb green beans or whatever you have left to throw in there
8 oz mushrooms
one batch of my Cream of Mushroom Soup or this recipe which is dairy free: 2 cans coconut milk, 1 lb fresh mushrooms, and 1/3 cup cornstarch mixed well using a mixer(I used my Ninja).

Put the turkey and green beans with the mushrooms in the bottom of the crockpot and cover with the cream of mushroom soup.  Cook on low all day.

Chicken, asparagus, and mushrooms.
I LOVE asparagus!

I placed the turkey, green beans, and mushrooms in the crock first and then poured the cream of mushroom soup over them.

Ready to simmer all day long.

You can serve over rice or use up those leftover mashed potatoes.

The perfect supper served over rice.

Super yummy and good for you!  I hope you like it.  My kids LOVE it.  The last time we had this for supper most of the kids had 2-3 helpings and there was none left over when we were all through eating.  I of course, really just wanted to pick out all the green beans and eat it on my own!

You will need:

2 chicken breasts- I pulled the meat off a chicken I had roasted.

Put all together in the crockpot and cook on low all day.

Crockpot Oatmeal with Fruit

A super easy and oh so good for you meal that requires almost no prep!  Of course we love it!  This is so simple all you need is a crockpot, steel cut oats(or whole oat groats even), water, vanilla, some cinnamon, and some fruit!

All mixed up and ready for a night in the crockpot!

This is all that went into it!  So simple!

This has to be the simplest oatmeal recipe ever!  Here is what you do:

Before going to bed place all the following in a crockpot, set on low heat, put the lid on, and go to sleep!

8 cups water

3 cups steel cut or whole groat oats

1 pound plus 2 cups of frozen fruit(I used a berry mix-strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, but you can use anything--that's what makes it so great)

1 Tb real vanilla(I make my own)

2 tsp cinnamon

Place on your low setting and just let the crock do work while you sleep.  Ideally it needs 8 hours to cook properly.  You can spray the crockpot or put a liner in to help with sticking during cleanup, but I just soak mine for a bit in boiling water with soap and it comes clean easily.

Serve with milk or honey.  We like honey on ours.  If you use gluten free oats it is gluten free.  It can also be dairy free as long as if you add milk you use dairy free milk.  We're not big on adding milk.  If we want more moisture we add yoghurt to ours.  

This serves 6.  I found that this served my whole family though so it can serve 10 if all but two are children!  Enjoy!
