It would be much appreciated if you could drop me off a few recipes for yummy and warm Crockpot recipes.
And for those of you rolling your eyes, I swear I don't have my fur coat out yet. I save that for the 40s. |
Totally rolling my eyes at you! It was -1 here last night, LOL! I had to snowblow myself out of a foot of snow yesterday morning to get the kids off to school (because these masochistic Mainers don't cancel or even delay unless we get 2 feet
, where in VA we would close for 2 inches), and I ended up driving them to school literally coated head to toe in snow and ice with STEAM...STEAM coming off of my clothing, LOL! (And thinking about the meltwater on my leather heated seats wondering if I could manage to electrocute myself that way, ha!)
But I digress...
This one is so easy it's laughable, but the kids like it and it's good for a couple of meals. I take a pork tenderloin and throw it in the crock pot with some Stubb's Chicken Marinade (in the BBQ/Ketchup aisle...and I like the Chicken one better than the Pork one for some reason) and sliced, halved yellow or sweet onions. Let it cook all day and then use a fork to shred it in the crock pot. Serve with fresh made cole slaw on rolls with good BBQ sauce.
Easy, warm and comforting on a (ha!) cold evening.
(And now this is making me wonder why on earth I never found my crock pot when I unpacked the last kitchen box last year...hmm...)
