Since we were home on Christmas Day and Chad’s parents came over, we decided we couldn’t get by with just leftovers!  But I also didn’t want to spend my day in the kitchen. I made this turkey in the crockpot (recipe from my sister-in-law) along with mashed potatoes and Pear-Spinach Salad. Chad’s mom brought stuffing and cranberries.  It was easy and delicious! Perfect for the day!
