Perfect meal for crisp fall day! So easy and delicious and even my picky eaters loved it. I made some substitions for the ingredients I didn't have. I used apple juice instead of cider, chicken broth instead of orange juice, and regular cranberry sauce. I mashed up the jellied cranberry sauce with a fork and added some dried cranberries. Before serving I thickened the sauce to make a gravy. I already received requests to make it again. Thanks for sharing such a delicious and easy dinner.

I was very hopeful for this. I buy turkey tenderloin to feed to my dogs, decided I would try this recipe. Nope, no, 6 hrs to cook turkey tenderloin in slow cooker, just dried it out! Plus sauce was watery! I made a cornstarch slurry to thicken sauce and I shredded turkey so it would absorb some juices! Not marking this again!! I

Easy and absolutely delicious. I made this for our Thanksgiving dinner this year instead of the usual turkey and this is soooo much better! I never thought I would use the words "moist" and "turkey" in the same sentence until I tried this recipe. I won't wait for another holiday dinner to have this again.

I made this tonight and it smelled divine while cooking, and was delicious and juicy! Next time I will use less onion, though. I also think I might double the cranberry and maybe add chopped apple and make kind of a chutney. Maybe add chunks of sweet potato to roast in your pot as well. I served with mashed potatoes and tried to make a gravy from the juices, which didn’t work too well, maybe I needed more cornstarch though. This would be good to serve to guests because it’s that delicious and easy!

I live in Columbus, Ohio, and work as a cashier supervisor, a job I actually love most days. I'm a single woman, but I do love to cook for myself, friends and family. I am an inveterate recipe collector and I read cookbooks the way other people read the current fiction best seller. I am forever tweaking and playing with recipes, as I tend to think of them as general guidelines that are open to interpretation and adaptation. I believe that there is no reason to subject yourself to drive-throughs and fast food just because you're cooking for one or two because if you can read, you can cook.
