But there are still a few meals left before the big day, and even after, you may have a house of guests to continue to feed. Never fear! The Shine Supper Club is here to keep dinner easy and your kitchen (relatively) clean with these one-pot meals. Share yours and you could win this swanky Dansk casserole from Crate and Barrel!

Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom writes, "I love that I was able to toss the ingredients in the crock pot and have a hot meal at dinner time! This Mexican inspired Chicken Chowder was super filling and we had plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day." We love that, too.

Perhaps you can identify with So says Sarah who writes, "There's nothing like a dinner that makes the whole family happy, which is harder to pull off than you might think. My tot isn't excited about this or the husband isn't in the mood for that. So the other night, when I tossed together this seriously simple dinner, I was amazed when everyone asked for seconds - and thirds."

"Don't worry," writes Average Betty. "There is nothing wrong with craving a hearty, comforting bowl of Turkey Chili with Lentils before leftovers from the big meal are even put away. After all, chili with lentils may be one of the best things about Thanksgiving."
