Frequently asked questions
White the turkey is certainly the main dish and the potatoes can be seen as a side, you may want to add another side. Wild rice goes well with the flavors in this dish. And I always love serving turkey with a side of cranberry sauce. You might also want to add a side salad or soup.
Sometimes I add chopped onion, other vegetables, chopped carrots, or cranberries to the crock pot before cooking.
