Friday Favorite: Crockpot Love

May 15, 2015 by Ruthie 2 Comments

Anyone that knows me knows that my husband is the main cook in our household.  I mean it’s in his blood…he’s Italian, so why not let him do most of the cooking?!  I am mostly a stay at home so I have been trying to help out in that area more often.  I don’t claim to be an amazing cook by any means but I can follow a recipe quite well.  (I do pride myself in my abilities with baking!  I can bake the crap out of some cookies!)  I also really like to cook with the crockpot/slow cooker.  I have some major crockpot love!  It’s hard to mess up a crockpot meal which is a bonus for me!

I wanted to share with everyone this Friday some of my favorite go-to crockpot meals!  I have tried and loved all of these.  What’s more delish than food that has slow cooked for hours and comes out tender and juicy!?

Friday Favorite: Crockpot Love

Creamy Ranch Chicken

Parmesan Ranch Mushrooms

Chicken & Stuffing

Italian Chicken
Artichokes

Buffalo Chicken

So apparently, I really like chicken crockpot dishes!  Haha!  I do find chicken to be better in the crockpot because typically it does not dry out where it can on the grill or in the oven.  I want to expand my horizons after creating this post and try some other meat groups!  I’ll let you know if I try something and love it!

Also, something that changed my life with crockpot cooking was Reynolds Slowcooker Liners!!!  Seriously it takes away about 90% of the cleaning time and a quick scrub and rinse and your crockpot is ready for the next cooking session!

My husband’s singing group, The Crush, is coming into town this weekend to sing on the local barbershop chapter’s show!  If you are in the Minneapolis area come to check out their show at Bethel University with the Greater Northern Union Chorus.  It’s going to be a great show!  Happy weekend!
