Green Chili and Cheese Breakfast Casserole
Is there anything better than a nice breakfast casserole on cold Sunday morning? Here’s a new recipe I’ve been playing with that has some fun Southwestern flavors. The casserole is easy to put together and can sit in the fridge overnight. You just bake it while enjoying your first cup of coffee and by the […]
Continue readingCrockpot Meatloaf Recipe
We love meatloaf around here. I use my mother-in-law’s recipe but modified it to work in the crockpot for those days when we’re busy running around. It’s comfort food and there’s always plenty left over for sandwiches the next day. I also like to crumble up leftover meatloaf and use it in spaghetti sauce. Here’s […]
Continue readingCrockpot Chicken Corn Chowder
I’ll admit it… I love a nice bowl of homemade chowder. There’s just something about the richness and creaminess that’s hard to beat. The problem for me up until now has been that it takes some time to make and that I always feel guilty about all those calories. Well… consider the problem solved with […]
Continue readingCrockpot Sweet Potato and Apple Soup
Earlier this week I shared a recipe for a loaded backed potato soup that cooks in the slow cooker that’s been a big hit this fall. Today I have another potato soup for you, but this one includes some sweet potatoes and apples. The combination makes for a great soup that fills you up and […]
Continue readingCrockpot Baked Potato Soup
Who doesn’t love a nice baked potato with some sour cream, cheese and bacon? How about taking all those wonderful flavors and turning them into a quick and easy crockpot soup. I think peeling the potatoes was the hardest and most time consuming part of making this soup. Next time I’ll put my husband to […]
Continue readingCrockpot Tuscan Chicken
I love this dish for a couple of reasons. It’s very easy to make. Just grab a few ingredients from your pantry and freezer, toss them in the crockpot in the morning and by dinner time you have a delicious and healthy meal ready to go. Just boil some pasta or rice and dinner is […]
Continue readingPumpkin Soup Recipe
Fall is perfect soup weather and there isn’t much that’s better than a nice cup of pumpkin soup. I love the sweet and savory combination. Add a slice of homemade bread and you have a great lunch or light dinner to warm you up on a cold day. You can use canned pumpkin as outlined […]
Continue readingPumpkin Bread In The Crockpot
One of my favorite fall flavors is pumpkin. I love indulging in a Pumpkin Spice Latte every once in a while and of course there’s pumpkin soup, pumpkin pie… I even came across some pumpkin flavored beer the other day. A family favorite though is pumpkin bread. Since Tracy has challenged me (and a whole […]
Continue readingOvernight Apple Cinnamon Crockpot Oatmeal
Is there anything better than a nice warm bowl of oatmeal on a cool fall day? Actually, there is. It’s waking up to the smell of said oatmeal cooking when you wake up. My absolute favorite kind is apple cinnamon. It’s what my husband cooks me when we’re camping and I’ve adapted it for the […]

My friend Tracy – author of “Slow Cooking Recipes For Busy Mom” is sharing a great new crockpot recipe with us today. Here she is. I recently started homeschooling my children. There’s been a bit of a learning curve to it and it has taken some time to get set up to run smoothly. Since […]
Continue readingApple and Peach Chutney Recipe
I love the flavors of fall, but am not quite ready to give up on summer either. Why not combine two of my favorite fruits as we transition from late summer into fall – Apples and Peaches. I love how the sweet fruit flavors combine in this sweet and spicy chutney. I love serving this […]
Continue readingOnion Ring Recipe
I love fall. It’s getting cooler and of course there’s football. I’m not the worlds biggest fan, but it’s nice to curl up on the couch with my husband to watch the game. A few weeks ago he mentioned that he missed hanging out with a beer and an order of onion rings to watch […]
Continue readingDairy Free Overnight Oatmeal
After I shared my overnight oatmeal recipe the other day, a close friend of mine asked if I knew how to make this dish dairy-free. Her daughter is lactose intolerant, so using milk and yogurt were out. Since the yogurt helps with the consistency of the finished oatmeal, I had to get a little creative. […]
Continue readingApple Sauce Cake With Nuts and Raisins
One of my favorite things about fall is apples. I love being able to drive up to an apple orchard and getting a big box of them fresh of the tree. Regardless of the season though, I almost always have a bag or two of these yummy fruits around the house. They are great for […]
Continue readingBroccoli Salad with Bacon
I remember the first time I had this salad. It was at a family cookout and I loved it. It took me a few different tries to come up with a version just like it. It’s since become a favorite. I’ll make it when I know we’ll cook something on the grill for dinner. I […]
