My youngest has been on a big soup kick lately. I make a lot of soup at home. I can easily make it gluten-free when I need it to be. It’s a hot and filling meal on a chilly night. I had ground beef that I needed to use. I was going to do something …
Slowcooker
I knew I wanted to make chicken, broccoli and rice. I didn’t have any chicken stock on hand, but I did have boullion cubes. I wanted to speed up the process, since I’d forgotten to start the meal sooner. So I used my new “browning” Crock-Pot to make this dish. FYI this isn’t a soup. …
We like chili in our house. Fall is here and the crockpot is out and getting a lot of use. I wanted to try making chili from scratch in the crockpot. I purposely kept this on the mild side, since that’s how I like it, as is also the case with my youngest and …
The slow cookers haven’t been getting much rest lately. I love comfort food and slow cooked meals can taste so yummy! A while back I’d made some stuffed meatballs that came out really yummy. I decided I wanted to try making a gluten-free version. I decided to use the Ninja Kitchen 3-in-1 Cooking System. We …
For this recipe I used my new Crock-Pot “Browning” Slow Cooker. INGREDIENTS 1 lb chicken 1 lb ziti 1/2 cup crumbled bacon 2 cups ricotta 28 oz diced tomatoes (basil garlic oregano seasoned) INSTRUCTIONS Cover chicken with water and boil chicken halfway. Remove chicken, leaving about 2 cups of water in the crockpot. Place ziti …
Fall has arrived and we’re ready for what I affectionately call “soup weather”. We all love soup. I decided to combine two different soups to make a third. I took what we love about potato soup and combined it with broccoli cheese soup and made Broccoli Cheddar Potato Soup. And because I like things nice …
I love slow cooked meals. They are usually so easy to make and taste so good. Rice is a frequent item you will see at our house because by it’s affordable and by itself usually gluten-free. After years I finally figured out a recipe to make homemade gluten-free meatballs that don’t taste gluten-free. Now it …

I had a bunch of really ripe bananas that had to be used or thrown away. I wanted to make a cake with bananas for my Mom, since she loves them. But it was hot and I didn’t want to heat up the house. I decided to try making the cake in the crockpot. It …
This is one of those recipes that tastes so good but doesn’t picture terrible well. Thankfully most people know things don’t have to look gorgeous to taste good. And a bonus. I never feel guilty about eating something that isn’t gorgeous. Gorgeous food I almost (I said almost) feel guilty about biting into. Unless it’s …
Slow Cooker Boneless Pork Ribs are tasty, tender and easy to make. The slow cooker does almost all of the work and doesn’t heat up the kitchen. I found a package of boneless pork loin back ribs on sale for the ridiculously low price of under $4, because that day was their sell by date. …
Did you ever see those tubs of already cooked pulled pork and shredded chicken in the grocery store? Two brands I’ve seen in my area are Lloyd’s and Curly’s, and they go on sale from time to time. We like them, but I often find myself thinking what else we can do with them besides …
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Dollar General. All opinions are 100% mine. I love using my crockpot. I use it year round. In the summer it’s a great way to cook hot meals without turning on the oven and heating up the house. In the winter it’s the best …
Crockpot Creamy Steak And Potatoes is super easy to make, the hardest part of making it is peeling the potatoes. This comfort food is not exceptionally pretty, but it is tasty and filling. I love creamy sauces. A few nights ago I knew I was going to make dinner in the crockpot. I wanted to …
I love cooking with the crockpot. I had some frozen hash browns and ground beef that I needed to use, this is what I came up with. INGREDIENTS 1.5 lbs Ground beef 16 oz frozen hash browns 1x 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes (I use the basil, garlic and oregano variety) 1/4-1/2 cup shredded bacon …

I was in a ranch mood when looking through the cabinets for ingredients to concoct with. I like the creamy sauce that it makes so much that I’m contemplating trying to turn it into soup. Hubby says it wouldn’t work. We’ll see. Anyway. The canned cream of chicken soup keeps this dish from being gluten-free …
I love the crockpot for a lot of reasons. It’s easy, you put everything in there and let it cook. You can turn it on hours ahead of time, removing the need to stand in front of the stove after a long day at work. You can cook hot meals in the warm weather without …
