Slow Cooker Recipes

Back in the days of my being a working mom, I relied heavily on my CrockPot to get an evening meal on the table in a reasonable amount of time. With 3 growing boys and a construction worker husband, takeout just wasn't financially reasonable. So those were the days of my being a "CrockPot Queen" and I still love the ease and practicality of using my slow-cooker to this day.
