I made this recipe one night for me and my Dad and I’m glad it was only us!! I seriously underestimated how many ribs I was going to need- so keep that in mind if you make this! This recipe has become one of my favorites. When ribs go on sale at the store, I…

Crock Pot Chicken and Sausage with Spaghetti Squash
I’m going to make this recipe again next week and I seriously can’t wait. I was really surprised how well this came out. I don’t think I’ve ever had better sausages in my life— and that’s sayin’ something. Not to mention, this is probably the easiest crock pot recipe I have ever made- no mixing,…
Crock Pot Butter Chicken
Nothing is better than making some butter chicken fresh. However, if you have a busy schedule like I do most of the time, you don’t have 30 minutes to an hour dedicated to cooking once you come home from work if you want to eat at a reasonable hour. This recipe came out better than…
Crock Pot Chili with Quinoa and Sweet Potatoes
I’m all about my crock pot. If I could marry it, I would. It saves me so much time when I get home from work. If you don’t have one, ask for one for Christmas. You need one. This recipe was a little hot! I’m not a big fan of spicy, but this was definitely…
Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Chicken
This is another SUPER easy slow cooker recipe. And it’s packed with flavors. Why worry about coming home from work, maybe late and slave over the stove for an hour while you try to throw something together?? Simply throw all these ingredients in your slow cooker, set it, and FORGET IT! There are green beans…
Chipotle Pulled Pork Lettuce Wraps with Avocado Aoli
How many times am I gonna tell you guys that I make easy recipes? First of all- avocado aoli??? That sounds fancy as all hell. Second of all- CHIPOTLE pulled pork? Who doesn’t love chipotle?? This recipe is super simple, takes no time at all, and packs a punch of flavor. This is a great…
Slow Cooker Thai Chicken with Peanut Sauce
Chicken with peanut sauce is one of my favorite dishes when we get Thai food. I almost always get it. This recipe came out okay- I would make more sauce to pour over the dish, or have some on the side as these noodles really soaked up the sauce. Otherwise, it was pretty delicious. I…
Slow Cooker Orange Roast
This was an extremely simple meal. There’s a little bit of prep you can do in the morning or even the night before. It’s literally a full meal cooked in the crock pot. I also cooked up some green beans o the side for some extra veggies, but you don’t necessarily need it. If I…
Peach BBQ Pork Sliders & Apple Cole Slaw
This is a great summer or fall recipe and you get to use your slow cooker!! I’m always looking for new ways to make pork and incorporate that into our diet. I get a little sick of the usually chicken, beef and occasional fish. I also made the Hawaiian rolls from scratch and gluten-freed them….
German Sauerbraten, Potato Pancakes and Cabbage
May isn’t really time for Oktoberfest, but my husband craves German food on a daily basis. His roots are German and this kind of food is his “soul food.” This is a recipe that has been passed down, translated and used by several generations in his family. I’m now passing it down to you. Be…
Slow Cooker Roast
This is a version of pot roast that comes from my “Paleo Slow Cooking” book by Chrissy Gower. Another really easy recipe where you can simply chop up a few things in the morning and throw it all into the crock pot. Set it and forget it!!! I easily roasted some little potatoes for the…
Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore
Man- the house smelled great when I got home from work. It’s such a relief being able to walk through that door, throw my bag down and be able to do whatever I want- whether that’s clean the house, workout, or veg out on an entire Netflix series for 6 hours. I love to cook- don’t…
