I’m always on the lookout for a new recipe for my slow cooker. When I found this Beef Barbecue recipe I knew it was going to be a keeper. You’re going to love how easy it is, and how great it tastes.  One of the things I really like about it is that you prepare it, let it cook all day, and then finish it off while you are putting together the rest of the meal.  Read the rest of this entry »

Hi all, long time no write.  Been a little hectic around here but things are getting back to normal.

I came across this really easy swedish meatball recipe today and thought I would share it with you.  Now I just got it today so I haven’t tried it yet but it sure sounds good to me.

1. Put a 5 pound bag of frozen meatballs in your crrock pot.
2. Put in  16 oz of Chip Dip, Sour cream and onion, veggie or dill.
3. Optionally, you can cut up a medium onion and add it to the top of mixture
4. Salt and Pepper it.
5. Turn crock pot on medium.
6. Come back 6 hours later and you are ready to eat.

I’d serve this over noodle, stroganoff style.

Rememer, I haven’t tried this yet but it sounds good.  I’d watch the cooking time on it also, just in case it takes longer than 6 hours.

Have a great day all.
6. Put lid on crock pot and head off to work.  When you get home the house smells great, dinner is ready!
