Crock Pot

So a while back I heard about this blog called 365 Days of Crock Pot and thought I should check it out. The woman cooked crock pot recipes each day for a whole year and did a post on them each day. She did it for several reasons: 1. To make good, healthy food for her family to eat daily and 2. To make some moolah on the side. At any rate, since we are often lacking in the home-cooked meal department, I decided that I would start cooking more by utilizing my crock pot. And since I have a plethora of cook books, many of them crock pot-related in nature, I started out just using them to make tasty concoctions for hubby and me to enjoy. And then I thought, "heck why not!?" and decided to make one her recipes. I picked her chicken and dumpling soup recipe since it was on the first page that day and I am lazy. And boy was it good! You top it with biscuits (yum) instead of making dumplings and it just comes out nice and perfect and we each ate waaayy too much in one sitting. Since then, I haven't really cooked. Hehehe. Well, that's not true. I've cooked, just not with the slow cooker. But at any rate, today when I was checking out her blog for some more tasty ideas I came across a post of her saying that if you linked to her blog you'd win a chance to get a free copy of her cook book. And since that recipe was sooooo good, I just had to enter. Not that I need any more cook books, mind you. I think I have close to 40 at this point...but one can never have too many cook books (especially ones that are delicious and easy), right?

Here's hoping for a win. Check out the post here for your chance to win, too! :)

Edit: When I orginally wrote this post, I was talking about this blog: http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/ not the one I actually wrote about. At any rate, I've tried stuff off of the other blog and her book is the one I linked to on amazon, not the other. Oh well. You can find the other book here: 365 Days of Slow Cooking
