    10 Superb Slow Cooker Recipes

    Published Nov 10, 2014 Β· Modified Nov 8, 2021 Β· by Alexis Joseph Β· 54 Comments

    If you know me at all, you know I'm in a serious relationship with my crockpot.

    10 Superb Slow Cooker Reipes

    The birth of my crockpot was by far one of the best things that ever happened to my kitchen. She (my crockpot, that is....should we name her?) kind of reminds me a lot of my mom. While I'm running around the house doing this and that, my little mumsy of a crockpot is in the kitchen transforming a bunch of ingredients into a hearty bowl of goodness. The BEST.

    Did you know you can make pretty much anything in a slow cooker? Chicken and chili and soup are so last Thursday. These days, bloggers around the blogosphere are whipping up everything from oatmeal and apple to crisp to brownies and lasagna! I swear, these things have magical powers.

    Without further adieu, lettuce explore ten fantabulously delish crockpot recipes!

      Hello Buddy,

      Thanks for sharing such awesome recipees. I love Corn and Red Pepper Chowder and always keep on finding its recipee, but your post helps me a lot. I am fond of cooking different things for my family. This is such a great collection! Love finding healthy slow cooker meals. We eat a lot of chicken at our house and I can’t wait to try out a bunch of these new and yummy recipes!

      You don’t need to turn on the oven for one thing, and the convenience factor is just too easy for those days when you are having too much fun outside. I love using my slow cooker in the summer because it doesn’t heat up the house as much as the oven.

      Thanks and Regards
      Rose

      I have my eye on the brownies (duh) and sweet potato lentils. For the past few weeks, I've made a big batch of something in my crockpot on Sunday and ate it for dinner throughout the week. Best idea ever - can't wait to throw some of these ideas into rotation.
