This is a recipe for Slow Cooker Loaded Baked Potato Soup, something my wife makes quite often, and I’d even say that it’s in our weekly recipe rotation. I have to mention that I’m really not much of a soup person. I like to eat real food, not something I can drink out of a […]

Slow Cooker Brisket
Have I ever mentioned that I love using my slow cooker? Maybe I did once or twice, I don’t know. I like to use it on Sundays so I can spend a little time prepping for dinner in the morning, then I can spend the rest of the day with my family and take care […]

Slow Cooker Applesauce
I was planning on making potato pancakes this past weekend and I needed some applesauce. I’m not a big fan of regular store bought applesauce, but I really like the homemade versions of it.

Slow Cooker Chili
This is a favorite chili recipe of mine that I decided to make in my slow cooker this past Sunday. Life is very busy for me with a full-time job, food blog, wife, two kids, and now a brand new puppy. As much as I like to cook and bake sometimes I don’t want to […]

Slow Cooker Potatoes with Ham
My oldest daughter Samantha is crazy about potatoes. If she’s hungry on a Saturday afternoon she’ll microwave a single potato and then turn it into mashed potatoes or some other potato concoction.

Easy Dinner Rolls
Honestly, when you think Homemade Dinner Rolls, do you think quick and easy? Do you think of something that can be made in about thirty-five minutes? Me neither.

Potato Pancakes
This breakfast recipe is one of my family’s favorites, something I’ve made quite often. Now I don’t like to brag, but my kids say that this Potato Pancake recipe is better than one at a famous pancake restaurant in suburban Chicago. I’ve been a fan of potato pancakes since I was a kid. Having a […]
