Crock Pot Chronicles

I call this first series of blogs the Crock Pot Chronicles. Our family is constantly on the go. I work full time and have 2 teenage daughters that are competitive soccer players. We eat out a lot, mostly because we aren't home long enough to cook something. The other day I came across a website that was loaded with crockpot recipes. I figured that maybe this crockpot thing would work for us. I mean how hard can it be to use a crockpot?! Dump stuff in the pot in the morning, come home after school/work and it's ready to eat. So I drug out my crockpot (yes, I do have a crockpot) cleaned off the layer of dust and decided to give it a try. Then I went to the website and pulled off a few recipes that looked pretty easy to make. Next, I made a list of ingredients I would need and went to the store. Making a list is HUGE for me. Usually I just grab stuff off the shelves and come home with only about half of what I need.




When I got home I planned out my menu for the week. Another big step for me. ..planning a menu. Follow the Crock Pot Chronicles and read all about my adventures in the world of Crock Pot cooking.
