Food, Wine, Family. Fun!
It's summertime and that means all things BBQ ... though I make pulled pork year round. I picked up a bone-in pork shoulder the other week at the butcher specifically for this recipe. It makes the perfect amount for two dinners plus lunch for my family. I also love that I can throw it into… Continue reading Slow Cooker Pulled Pork
We're coming out of the Polar Vortex and I'm so glad I made this dish earlier in the week. It was the perfect thing for leftovers. I also love that it's made in a slow cooker ... throw it all into one pot and let it do it's thing while cooking. All this cold weather… Continue reading Beef Ragu over Papparedelle
My son loves lasagna, but it's one of those recipes that I save for a weekend to make because it can be time-consuming. This soup satisfied his "need" for lasagna and a bonus was that it made enough for leftovers for lunch and dinner. It's a simple soup to make and allowing the sauce to… Continue reading Slow Cooker Lasagna Tortellini Soup
I've been looking for a new pot roast recipe and I think I found it! This was one delicious and it's made in a slow cooker, which makes it even better.

I'm completely late in blogging about the ham I made for Easter dinner....where has the time gone? I haven't been doing much new cooking or baking lately, we're in our busy spring sports season and it's been a lot of grilling and quick dinners. Lacrosse season is ending next week and I'll definitely be getting… Continue reading Rosemary Citrus Glazed Ham

My kids are growing like weeds! I've been noticing their pants are getting shorter and they've been complaining their shoes are too small. It might explain all the snacking they've been doing! I wanted to make something that would be packed with protein, but still have a little bit of sweetness and found this delicious… Continue reading Chunky Monkey Trail Mix
The weather has finally started to turn here in Southeastern PA and I had to break out the slow cooker to make this chili.

Evenings have been a little crazy around our house the past couple of weeks, so I'm always looking for ways to get dinner on the table quickly. This recipe definitely did that...except I was the only one who enjoyed it. Everyone else in my family was just blah on it. Oh well, you can't always… Continue reading Slow Cooker Barbecue Chicken Pasta
Last weekend, I received a head of cabbage in our CSA share and cauliflower was on sale...it was the perfect timing to make this low carb unstuffed cabbage soup. I love stuffed cabbage, but it's a pretty labor intensive dish...but this soup fills that craving for me. Plus it's made in the slow cooker! Win,… Continue reading Low Carb Unstuffed Cabbage Soup
