Slow Cooker Thanksgiving Casserole

Potato Layer

3 lbs. russet potatoes, peeled and diced SMALL (or 1.5 lbs. russet and 1.5 lbs. sweet potatoes)
2/3 cup milk
1/2 cup butter, sliced
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

Chicken Layer

2 lbs. chicken breasts, cubed into 1 inch pieces (can use cubed raw turkey breast or tenderloin)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. parsley

Next layers (in order)

10.5 oz. can cream of mushroom soup
6 oz. turkey stove top stuffing, (or chicken flavor)
1/2 cup salted butter, sliced
1 lb. frozen green beans, (or fresh trimmed green beans)
10.5 oz. can cream of chicken soup
8 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese, (freshly shredded if possible)
1 cup toasted French fried onions

Instructions

1- Before starting the layers, liberally spray the entire inner crock with cooking spray to avoid any possible sticking.
2- Our first layer is the potatoes. Peel and cube them into small pieces (sweet potatoes too if you’re using them.) Add them to the slow cooker and pour the milk over, place the butter slices on top of the potatoes. Sprinkle with the allotted salt and pepper.
3- Cube the chicken and add it to a bowl. Toss the chicken with the salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and parsley. Stir the chicken until all the pieces are completely coated with the seasonings and then add it to the slow cooker over the potatoes.
4- Next in order add these layers (spread each layer out evenly over the next): cream of mushroom soup, stuffing mix, sliced butter, green beans, cream of chicken soup, then mozzarella cheese.
5- Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours. Cooking time will vary depending on your actual appliance but the edges should have begun to brown, the top bubbling, and the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F. The potatoes should also be fork tender.
6- Once done, sprinkle the French fried onions over the top. Serve and enjoy.

Cream of chicken soup: It can replaced with cream of mushroom soup of cream of celery soup
Stovetop stuffing mix: Or you could use a homemade stuffing recipe
Melted butter: Gives the stuffing that crispy topping.

Directions:

Step 1: Add tender chicken breasts to the bottom of the Slow Cooker insert. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, and chicken broth to the mix.
Step 2: Dump green beans on top of the chicken.
Step 3: Pour the cream of chicken soup on top and spread it over the top.
Step 4: Add the dry stuffing mixture on top and spread it out evenly.
  - Dump melted butter over stuffing mix. Cover and cook.

Easy $5 Soda Cake Desserts + Gift Suggestion!

I make soda cakes for just under $5
Old-fashioned cookbooks are filled with soda-meets-cake-mix recipes that were highly fashionable at the time.

Ingredients:

1 (15.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle cola-flavored carbonated beverage (such as Coke®)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Combine cake mix and cola in a large bowl. Use a hand whisk to mix ingredients until light and smooth, about 3 minutes. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.

Bake cake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Allow cake to cool before cutting.

Favorite Frostings + Whipped Topping Frosting

- lemon cake with Sprite and lemon pudding in cool whip frosting.
- strawberry cake with Fanta red pop and vanilla pudding in cool whip
- cola and a chocolate cake mix…top with cool whip and Marschino Cherries??? Choc/cherry cake? * You can also do chocolate cake with DR. PEPPER - pineapple cake with pineapple soda and added about 1/2 cup of drained, crushed pineapple to it. I used vanilla icing and put a little bit of pineapple ice cream topping on top.

Note: I just did a recipe using cherry pie filling for the bottom, mix 12 ounces of cherry cola with a chocolate fudge cake mix n spread on cherry pie filling, it was delicious.

Variations:

- Fanta Orange + Vanilla cake mix - Coca Cola + Chocolate Cake Mix - Sprite + Yellow Cake Mix - Dr. Pepper + Red Velvet Cake Mix - A&W Cream Soda + Vanilla Cake Mix - Barq's Root Beer + Spice Cake Mix - Canada Dry Ginger Ale + Carrot Cake Mix - Mountain Dew + Lemon Cake Mix - Fanta Strawberry + Strawberry Cake Mix - Sierra Mist + Butter Pecan Cake Mix - Pibb Xtra + Devil's Food Cake

Simply stir together the soda and cake mix and follow the mix's baking instructions for the size of the pan and cook time. The end result will be a delightfully light and fluffy cake with minimal effort, which we view as a win-win.

Gift Suggestion:

Take the box of cake mix, a can of soda and a can of icing in a throw away foil pan with some birthday plates to local shelters and pantries So children can have a birthday cake (even when there's no oil or eggs available)
They love it!
