Hello, friends and Happy December. I can't believe it's the beginning of December already! How did the year go by so fast? LOL. 😯
Well, I really enjoy using the crockpot during these busy days during the holidays and the long winter months. I love the way the kitchen smells when a roast is cooking in the crockpot.
I have this super easy and delicious Crock Pot Applesauce Pork Roast to share with you.
The easy part about this recipe is that you just add your vegetables to the bottom of the pot, and then add your roast on top of the vegetables. The juices from the pork roast make its own gravy that cooks right in the crockpot.
I added carrots and celery to the pot, but you could even add in cut up potatoes and onions.

I also changed the recipe around a little bit to my liking. I cooked everything a little longer in the crockpot so that the pasta is cooked less al dente. I also used less pasta sauce in the crockpot than the original recipe calls for.

Hello friends, with cooler temps here I love using the crock pot.
I have an easy to make crock pot chicken and stuffing recipe to share with you. It makes the perfect back to school dinner idea.
I was looking for a crock pot recipe to make that had chicken and stuffing in it. So after searching Pinterest, I came across this recipe HERE, and it looked really good and easy to follow.
I have made this crock pot recipe about four times already and my family just loves it. I made this recipe in the past using green beans like the recipe calls for and it tasted really good.
This time when I made the chicken and stuffing, I realized that I did not have any green beans, so I used one can of drained and rinsed peas instead. My family happens to like this recipe better with the peas. I also did not have any sour cream on hand and I used water in place of it and the recipe still came out great.
This crock pot recipe is an easy one to make any time of year and the perfect week night meal. If you are making this crock meal around Thanksgiving, then you can just substitute the chicken for turkey.
By the way, the crock pot you see featured in the photo above, was from my mother-in-law, which she used to use. The crock pot is at least 40 years old and still works great. I had an oval shaped crock pot that I loved but the top broke. I still wanted to use the crock pot, but have the lid replaced. My problem was that the company that makes the replacement lids does not make my lid anymore or the crock pot. So that is why I'm using this crock pot and I love it.
I hope you all like this recipe as much as my family.
Yield: 6 to 8
Crock Pot Chicken and Stuffing
prep time: 10 MINScook time: 4 hourtotal time: 4 hours and 10 mins
This is an easy way to make chicken and stuffing in the crock pot.
INGREDIENTS:
- 6 chicken breasts
- 1 can of cream of chicken soup
- 1 box of stuffing mix
- cup of sour cream
- 1 small package of frozen green beans or (1 can of peas)
- 1 cup water
- crock pot
- cooking spray
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Spray the crock pot with non stick spray.
- Place defrosted chicken in the bottom of the crock pot as your first layer.
- Open stuffing mix and pour the dry mix over the raw chicken.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the soup and sour cream. Top this mixture over the dry stuffing mix.
- The last layer will be the frozen green beans or peas.
- Now add about 1 cup of water to the top of this mix.
- Cook on high for 4 hours or cook on low for about 7 to 8 hours.
- Tip: About half way between the cooking time, use a fork to fluff the stuffing mix. This will allow the water to drop through the soup mix and create a steam to cook the stuffing. Add less water if you prefer a dry stuffing or add more water if you like it really moist.

Hi friends. I hope you are all enjoying the start of summer.
Last year I had a blogger link up to our Monday Cooking and Crafting with J & J Link Party that I co-host with Jess from Plucky's Second Thought. Angie shared a blog post on how to make Crock Pot Corn on the Cob.
When I saw that recipe, I just knew that I wanted to try and make it too. Well, I made the corn on the cob that way, and it tasted so good and it was so easy to make.
What I love about using the crock pot, is that you do not have to be standing over a hot stove to make it. Meanwhile, I can be doing other things while the corn is cooking.
Just make sure that you have the time to cook the corn in your crock pot before your dinner or BBQ.

It's so easy to prepare and you will be so happy that you won't be cooking over a hot stove.
 |
I hope you try this way to make your corn on the cob. Let me know if you cook it this way, and how you liked it.
Thanks Angie from The Country Chic Cottage for sharing this way to make corn on the cob. I will definitely be making my corn this way this year too.

Hello blog friends. I LOVE using my crock pot during the week for quick and easy week night meals. I came up with the idea to make crock pot stuffed peppers when I saw it in one of my cookbooks. I changed the recipe a bit to my liking.
Here are a few photos showing how I prepared the stuffed peppers.
What I love about this recipe is that you don't have to put the peppers in the oven to cook. Once again I can make the peppers in the crock pot, and then I can be doing other things until they are ready to eat. The peppers come out really tender and moist using this cooking method.
I hope you give this recipe a try as there is no meat in this recipe, and it would be the perfect meal to make for lent.

SIMPLE CROCK POT BEEF STEW RECIPE
Hello blog friends. During the winter months I love using my crock pot to make different recipes. It's so easy to use and I love that I don't have to be watching the stove the whole time. I can be doing other things while my meal is cooking away in the crock pot.
I made this stew recently and it tasted so good and everyone loved it. I made egg noodles on the side to go with the meal. The egg noodles were a big hit with everyone especially my teen!
This is one of the dishes my mom used to make for our family back when I was little. It brought back fond memories of all 8 of us gathered around the dinner table for a good hearty meal.
I hope I have inspired you to make beef stew for dinner soon. :)
Please let me know if you make this dish and how you liked it.
Cook time: 4 1/2 hours in crock pot set on HIGH setting or 8 to 9 hours LOW setting
Total time: 4 hours 45 minutes
