Last year was my first time ever hosting and making a Thanksgiving feast. And being the type A person that I am, I obviously planned out a 48 hour schedule leading up to the feast to make sure every recipe would be ready. While it all turned out great, I was frazzled as frick. Red cheeks and frizzy hair, frantically scurrying around to get everything on the table in time. So this year I’m bringing in some hands-off recipes that will cook themselves so that I can focus on hosting! And when it comes to hands-off cooking, a slow cooker is the answer. So today we’re making a slew of Thanksgiving side dishes at the same time. It’s ready in about 3 hours and takes care of all the busy work, meaning you can focus on creating that perfect main course (stuffed butternut squash, anyone?)

So here’s the plan. You’ll wrap your sweet potatoes in aluminum foil and throw them in the slow cooker on high for an hour. After that hour, you’ll add in your Brussels sprouts and creamy corn mixture, each in their own little aluminum foil boat. Keep cooking for another 2 hours then serve! That’s seriously it. Let’s do this.
