When herbs are plentiful in my garden, I prepare this recipe. The turkey stays moist in the slow cooker and is bursting with herb flavors. When I serve this to our Bible study potluck group, everyone wanted the recipe! —Sue A. Jurack

The marinade, when just made and cold, was wonderful and left me anxious to enjoy this entree. But after it was cooked--whoa. Not so good. Maybe it was the oddness of Dijon mustard and lemon and onion soup mix on turkey; I don't know. Seems like too many competing flavors. I've made this boneless breast dozens of times, and I so prefer it plain over this version. My husband thought it was ok, but he eats just about anything. I unfortunately made this today for T'giving. Wasted an expensive roast. :(
