Recipe for Slow Cooker Easy Pad Thai with Turkey (or beef, chicken or whatever you want) #slowcooker #crockpotrecipe
Makes 4 servings

1 lb ground turkey
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
2 Tbsp fish sauce
2 Tbsp rice vinegar
2 tsp sugar
1 (14 oz) can bean sprouts, drained
2 packages of ramen noodles or rice noodles 
Extra lime slices, cilantro and peanuts

1.  Combine the turkey and garlic in a pan on the stove.  Heat on medium heat until browned.  Stir to break up the meat.  Drain off any excess grease.  Transfer to the slow cooker.
2.  Add in lime juice, fish sauce, rice vinegar, sugar and bean sprouts.  Stir to incorporate.
3.  Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours.
4.  Cook desired noodles on the stove top, drain and then stir into the slow cooker.
5.  Serve in individual bowls and top with lime and cilantro and peanuts.
Review:
Totally delicious and an easy easy version of your Thai restaurant favorite.  I loved the interesting and flavor-bursting sauce of lime juice, fish sauce, rice vinegar and sugar.  You definitely could do this in a pan on the stove instead of the slow cooker.  I just like to have dinner ready early and I like that the flavors have time to marinate a bit.  You could also substitute beef or chicken for the turkey if you wanted (I just had a package of ground turkey that needed to be used up).  I’ll be making this in the future for sure.  I think next time I’ll experiment with some beef chuck steak.  4 stars.

    I don't see the advantage of the crockpot in this recipe, as EVERYTHING has to be cooked in another pan or pot! The use of the crockpot send extraneous here. I will, however, try this recipe without the crockpot! Thanks for all your recipes!
