Our Ten Favorite Slow Cooker Suppers
The slow cooker is an amazing tool that is one of my favorite appliances. There’s really no limit to how creative you can get with a slow cooker. That’s why I thought that slow cooker suppers seemed like a great thing to discuss this week. Afterall, it is “Crock-tober.” I have to admit that I have been a bit remiss in sharing my slow cooker […]
Slow Cooker Meat and Veggie Lasagna
Slow Cooker Lasagna is a very versatile dish. This Meat and Veggie Lasagna has lots of added vegetables and makes this version a meal by itself. Unfortunately, Baker’s Man demands garlic bread with all of his “Italian” dishes, so there was one more thing to do when I got home from work, but I’m not complaining. There’s nothing traditional about this slow cooker meat and […]
Slow Cooker Spare Ribs, Sauerkraut, and Potatoes
The slow cooker is a wonderful tool for helping prepare dinner on a busy weeknight, but most recipes are only for the entrée.

Actually, there’s other one step that makes the […]

Slow Cooker Red Cabbage and Apples
Slow Cooker Red Cabbage and Apples is a twist on a traditional German side dish. At least, hat’s what a German octogenarian told me. This recipe is our attempt to recreate the dish for her. We modified the recipe for Red Cabbage and Apples that she described by preparing it in a slow cooker to make it a bit less labor intensive.
Slow Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage
Saint Patrick’s day is nearly here. That means corned beef and cabbage is on our menu. I know it’s not traditional Irish fare, but it’s an American tradition. Do you know what’s better than corned beef and cabbage? Corned beef and cabbage cooked in the slow cooker. It’s simple, delicious, and easy to prepare. Because corned beef brisket is a tougher cut of meat, it […]
Slow Cooker Stuffed Mushrooms
Baker’s Man and I both love my Stuffed Mushrooms recipe, but I was wondering if there was another way to prepare them. I decided to see if it was possible to create Slow Cooker Stuffed Mushrooms. The result was wonderful. It was different than the original version in spite of almost identical ingredients, but it was still delicious. It’s good to know that if my […]
Slow Cooker Stuffed Chicken and Potatoes

All you need to do when you come home is cook a […]
