Here’s a great crock pot recipe for all of you who have a crock pot! (I love my crock pot!)
Crock pots are perhaps one of the best inventions ever, in my opinion. You just stick the uncooked food in it when you wake up, set it to low, and then BAM! It’s done perfectly at suppertime; it’s foolproof!
Some of you may remember my last chicken noodle soup recipe, where I explained how great home made chicken noodle soup is. Well this recipe simply takes the awesomeness up a notch. I just throw my ingredients in the crock pot before my kids go to school. By the time my kids get home the soup is finished and they’re eating it. It’s like pre-emptively battling those winter time colds, which makes it super awesome! (It seems to be rather effective too!)
