Slow cooker recipes
Quote | Reply
Father of three boys. Stay at home dad wh o does all the cooking. Our goal is to have a hot home cooked meal every night with the family around the table.

With school having started and after school activities, soccer practice, dr appointments it is becoming increasingly more difgicult to come home and have the time to cook a meal.

Looking for some go to slow cooker recipes. We already do chili, beef stew, pot toast but looking for other things that would appeal to young boys.

Thanks.

Just a thought, maybe invest in a good multi-cooker that will do both slow & pressure cooking. Slow cooker is okay, but being able to prep complex meals quickly is definitely a plus.

Agree, we do pulled pork and pulled chicken in ours. Also have good jambalaya recipe and split pea soup, I'll ask my wife as she has a bunch.
