Slow Cooker Chicken Caesar Salad Sandwiches

This recipe is one I have had sitting in my file box for a while.  It is SUPER simple and needs very few ingredients.  Once you add the Caesar dressing to the chicken dinner can be on the table within 30 minutes. Verdict: Both kids gobbled this meal up.  We were going out to dinner…

Slow Cooker Pork Carnitas over Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Even in summer I love my slow cooker.  I am still trying to use it at least 2-3 days a week to avoid having to think too much about dinner. I met several people at The Disney Social Media Moms Conference in Chicago last week who when I told them about my blog gave me…

Slow Cooker Chicken Cheesesteak

I have been reading quite a few blogs lately and some of them scare me a bit.  I am a bad mom.  I didn’t know it before I read all these blogs.  I let my children eat candy.  I don’t buy organic vegetables.  I don’t check their homework every night.  I may be negligent because…

Slow Cooker Moroccan Chicken

Ever have one of those days?  Well, this is it for me. After dance class last night I came home and we had dinner, helped the kids with their homework, took a ride down by the beach to watch the sunset.  It was a really great evening. This morning I get up and can’t find…

Slow Cooker Ground Beef Philly Cheesesteaks

Mondays are always the worst day of the week in our house.  It just seems to be hard to get the motivation going to start the week ahead.  I usually try to not schedule any appointments or meetings on Mondays because I just cannot get moving.  But, because our schedules are extra busy right now…

Slow Cooker Jambalaya

Most of my dinner photographs are pretty awful.  I am not a photographer.  This has to be one of the worst pictures I have ever posted.  This was taken after dinner when I realized I forgot to take a picture and there was just a little bit of Jambalaya left in the bottom of the…

Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie

I love, love, love, love my slow cooker.  I love that I can put the ingredients in the crock in the morning and by dinner time I have this delicious dish.  Everyone came in the house this evening and commented on how wonderful dinner smelled. If you are not using your slow cooker at least…

Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken with Loaded Tater Tots

Happy Valentine’s Day! From the frying pan into the fire.  We are always busy but on the day after we got home from vacation my daughter had a choir concert.  I needed to have dinner ready to go and be able to serve it to three different people at three different times. We usually don’t…

Slow Cooker Smothered Boneless Pork Chops

We all eat dinner together just about every night.  Four to five nights each week we eat at the table and then the other two are usually our “To-Go” meals in the car.   I am trying to instill good table manners such as please, thank you, please pass the … , use your fork and…

Slow Cooker Pork and Tomato Stew

This is another attempt to add more vegetables to our meals.  I took out pork loin boneless chops the other day and when I went to search for a recipe nothing was particularly inspiring to me.  That my children will tell you is dangerous as it means I will start creating something on my own….

Trisha Yearwood’s Slow Cooker Pork Loin

I pinned this recipe for Trisha Yearwood’s Slow Cooker Pork Loin from Bo’s Bowl.com a few weeks ago.  I was waiting for the night that someone pulled pork loin from the freezer for dinner.   Last night was the night. Verdict: The pork loin was okay but a bit ordinary.  The gravy is the reason to…
