My favorite recipes are made in the crockpot. I love the days when I can throw something in the crockpot and I dont have to think about what to fix for dinner for the rest of the day. These are two of my favorites:
Crockpot Chicken (from my chomay Lianna)
6 boneless chicken breasts
1 can cream of chicken
1 can cream of mushroom ( I usually use two cans of cream of chicken--I am not a lover of cream of mushroom)
½ cup evaporated milk
1 package Italian dressing
8 oz cream cheese
Put in crockpot, cook for 8 hours on low
Put over rice or mashed potatoes
Sesame Ribs (we made on Sunday and it is sooo yummy)
INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 large cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger, or 1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
3 to 4 pounds boneless country style pork ribs
1 medium onion, sliced
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
1/4 cup chopped green onion, with green
PREPARATION:
In large bowl, combine, the first nine ingredients. Add ribs and turn to coat. Place the onion in bottom of slow cooker; arrange ribs on top. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours. Place ribs on serving platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onion. Makes 6 servings.
I took the ribs out and thickened the sauce a little and served it all over rice. YUMMY!
Thanks Nancy for the great idea!
It has been a while since I posted. The month has just flown by. We have been out enjoying the patches of good weather that we have had. It has been fun taking the kids to the park. Last year Morgan was too little to play at the park, but this year she is the first one on the playgroud climbing the stairs and going down the slide all by herself. She loves playing with her brothers too. She is a tuff girl and makes every effort to keep up with her brothers. She loves riding on her big wheel--watch out when she learns to pedal.
