TRIED AND TRUE

I am looking for slow cooker/crock pot recipes that have actually been tried and approved by my fellow bloggers. If you will send me your favorite recipe, I'll send you one of mine. Also, I have put a reminder on my sidebar with my email address and I have created a link to crock pot recipes from COOKS.com. Those all look good but I find it's usually best to have a testimonial for the real good stuff.

Did you read my blog yesterday? If not, you must at least read the comments. Nancy even came back twice to comment and you guys did a better job with things you shared than I did with my story.

Instead of repeating my "I Love Your Blog" link, I'm going to leave each one a couple of days so you an still catch them while they are posted. If I'm featuring your blog, I'll try to remember to at least tell you.

  8. I love to use the crock pot. Cook book for crockpots seem to have a high incidence of mushroom soup in them. NOT A FAN.

    I use mine for spaghetti, roast, ham and beans and a tasty chicken and rice dish. I'll look them up and send them over.

  9. Here is a recipe that is very easy to do: Take a whole chicken, clean out the cavity and rub olive oil over the entire chicken. Season the entire chicken with your favorite seasonings and place the chicken in the crock pot. Turn it on low and cook it all day and you will have the best chicken in town. PS: I do not add any water to the crock pot but if you feel that you must, add a very small amount...The chicken makes plenty of juice on its own. Now my crock pot actually cooks low on low so it allows the juices to come out and not burn the chicken. The chicken comes out of the pot and just falls off the bones. Whatever is left after the meal, goes into a chicken salad....Yummmmm.
