Last Call: All Hail The Mighty Crock-Pot


What’s your favorite Crock-Pot recipe?

Writing this fun garbage chicken piece this week has re-ignited my love for my favorite appliance and is inspiring me to use it more often. You may think of the Crock-Pot as more of a fall/winter thing, but it is very handy in the summer months, as you can cook dinner and not heat up your entire kitchen. So let's hear it, Crock-Pot fans: What else do you like to throw in there? Obviously, anything with cream-of-mushroom soup is 100-percent acceptable. [Gwen Ihnat]
