Here's a list of excuses you can use to have a reason to make this AWESOME meal:
If you find yourself cramming in dinner between other commitments like we do, this meal is for you! I made it (and the pasta salad) in one afternoon and it will last us 4 days! It's super simple (thanks to my friend the crockpot) and works well for company. Also, the lemon gives it a nice summer taste.
Read MoreI've been on a mission this summer to find more tasty "at home" Asian meals and so far it's been a success! The title of this dish describes it perfectly: sweet, thanks to the pineapple, with a kick of fire thanks to the red pepper flakes!
Read MoreWant to have a fiesta that stands out from the others?! Serve pork carnitas instead of tacos! We LOVE this meal.
Read MoreIf you think making bread is too complicated for you, make this one! Y'all already know about my love affair with my crockpot. Matthew darling tells everyone I'm a good cook, but without that sweet cooker, I would be lost!
Read MoreTalk about a hardy winter meal! I felt all full and warm just making this roast! We got our first snow last weekend and luckily I had made it to the store in time to get the ingredients for this delicious crock-pot recipe. Food City may have been running low on milk and bread, but they had plenty of Boston Butt's for me to choose from! I guess pork isn't a "snow staple" for most folks. We don't eat much pork around here, but when we do, it's exquisite!
Read MoreMatthew and were both more than ready to say adios to the bad eating we embraced over the holidays, so it was nice to pull out that friendly crock-pot and fill it with whole foods.
I was especially excited about this recipe because it was so simple!
I did SO MUCH COOKING from Thanksgiving to New Years that I am *almost* sick of my kitchen!
So to be able to dump these simple ingredients in the crock-pot and have minimal cleanup helped make the transition from holiday foods to whole foods MUCH easier!
Esta comida es muy delicioso!
But really.
After you make this, you will probably ask yourself, "Why haven't I thought to cook this sooner?"
If you're short on time or money, this is the meal for you!
Simple ingredients? Check.
Crowd pleaser? Check.
Budget friendly? Check.
Passes for fancy Italian dish, but you only had to throw it all into the crockpot? Check!
I'm having trouble coming up with a sentence that describes how much we love this pita bread. It's hot, soft, chewy, and delicious. We typically eat it with shredded chicken out of the crockpot and whatever toppings we want!
