What's Cooking on Thursdays | Crock Pot Love

I had to feature the Crock Pot for the first installment of What's Cookin' on Thursday. One of our resolutions for the New Year was to eat out less to A. Eat healthier and B. Save moola so my sweet hubs bought me a shiny new stainless crock pot for Christmas. What is easier than throwing a few things in the Crock Pot in the morning and dinner being ready faster than you can run through the drive through?



Since I'm not all Crock Pot savvy, I called my BFF, Pinny for help. You might know her as Pinterest. Oh. Em. Gee. What have I been missing for so long? Seriously, so many recipes that look absolutely delish and take just a few minutes to prepare. And even better than that, there is very little clean-up. SOLD!

Here are a few recipes that are on my must try soon list.

Crock Pot Buffalo Chicken

I love buffalo chicken! Whip this up and throw it on a Hawaiian King Roll with a dollop of Ranch dressing and call it dinner.

Crock Pot Lasagna

This looks ah-mazing! So much better than Stouffer's and Lord knows I'm not going to make it from scratch in the oven!


Crock Pot Baked Potato Soup

Baked potato soup and a grilled cheese. You can't beat it with a stick!


Crock Pot Pot Roast

I'm dying to try this recipe. Nobody makes pot roast better than my granny and I'm praying that this is as good as hers. It looks like an exact match so I have my fingers crossed!

I'm really hoping that my crock pot will help me stick to my resolution this year. I don't think it could get any easier than this so hopefully I will. Do you have a good crock pot recipe to share?
