It's that time of year for moist succulent turkey! I love roasting turkey for many reasons. It is very simple to make and we always have leftovers for other dishes, which always makes me happy. This is naturally gluten free if you make sure to get fresh without added additives.
I like to serve my turkey with some of these side dishes for my family members who join us for the holiday - Crockpot Bacon Cheese Potatoes, Homemade Crockpot Caramel Dip (Dulce de Leche) ,Green Beans Almondine and Eagle Brand Pumpkin Pie. This year I will also be making a gluten free dessert!
