Recipes that I have found, inherited, or created. Nothing terribly difficult, as I try to avoid making anything that includes more than 4 or 5 ingredients. You may also notice that these recipes rely heavily on a Crockpot. That’s because Crockpots are so easy to use, just set it, go to work, come home to a meal.
If you’ve ever eaten at a Claim Jumper restaurant, there’s a good chance you’ve tried their Garlic Cheese Toast appetizer, commonly referred to among my friends as “Cheesy Bread.” The stuff is amazing and delicious, and I tend to order a platter as an appetizer, a few more pieces with dinner, and then a platter [...]
My mom gave me this recipe today when I was talking about what to make for dinner, and that I was still looking for a good recipe for oven-baked red potatoes. These are pretty deceptive. At first when you start eating them, you’re like “oh, these aren’t bad” and then as you keep eating, they [...]
A really easy beef stew, adapted from a pot roast recipe and meant to be cooked in a crock pot. This fills my 6qt crock pot, so if you have a 4qt you’ll probably need to cut the recipe in half.

This was a “recipe” that a friend of mine who’s a chef made for me. She had come over to visit, and neither of us wanted to cook something, but we didn’t want fast food, either. So we went to the store, found a bottle of seasoning sauce, and a pack of chicken, and tossed [...]
