There are no words to describe the happiness of having all the family home for dinner. After a hard weekend of saying goodbye to yet another loved one lost to cancer, it feels amazing to have the moment of one more dinner together before the unknown of tomorrow.
Tonight we had a small feast of chicken thighs and stuffing in the crock pot with scalloped potatoes. Followed by leftover sweet potatoes and freshly baked salted caramel brownies, all that he could enjoy.
It is these small things that when we look back later in life will have been the big and best things...
Crock Pot Turkey Cutlets with Stuffing
This easy Crock Pot turkey recipe is sure to become one of your favorites. It's like a mini Thanksgiving meal in one, and it's so simple. The stuffing goes into the Crock Pot first, then the turkey cutlets, and finally apple pie filling for a layer of sweetness. To change things up, consider stirring some dried cranberries into the apple pie filling.
