The thing that I dislike the most about cooking is that if I’m cooking while I’m hungry then I get impatient (wanting the food to hurry up and be ready), and if I’m not hungry and trying to figure out what to make nothing sounds good. It’s a vicious cycle. So I’m really liking the possibility of crock pot/slow cooker cooking.
I’ve spent the last week acquiring recipes from Pinterest and AllRecipes, as well as cookbooks and cooking magazines hanging around my apartment. Today I stumbled across a gold mine of crock pot recipes. Well a not very polished gold mine. The web designer in me cringes at the use of tables, and terrible Front Pageesque marble background a la 1996. But even though it hurts my eyes (and brain) this website has soooo many recipes to pick from! And I love the fact that this collection of over 100 crockpot recipes is from a cookbook club! I just wish the recipes had photos. Guess that’ll just have to be motivation for me to get cooking quicker!
Here are 33 slow cooker recipes that I’m looking forward to trying from the 50+ Friends Club Cookbook.
