One-Pot Beer Cheese Soup
Today is National Cheese Lover’s Day! A day just for cheese lovers — of which I am one! I often pick restaurants based on my ability to have an entre with cheese… So in celebration of today, I am posting a beer cheese soup recipe. Perfect for winter! Beer cheese soup makes for a warm and satisfying meal on cold, blustery days. Unfortunately, it has a reputation for being a bit tricky to make because it can turn into a gloppy mess if you aren’t careful. However, you can achieve picture-perfect (and palate-worthy) results at home with this easy recipe.

Slow Cooker Month: Do You Want Some Chicken?
Chicken, chicken, chicken… It’s an all-time favorite all-year-round! It’s the one thing everyone in my family will eat without too much ado! I am sure many other families are similar. Far be it from me to disappoint! Besides, you may think of fall when you hear pot roast, but using a chicken and some tasty herbs turns this into a dish that works well for spring and summer too. Use some of the leftovers to make soup the next day, or turn the leftover chicken into chicken salad. If you want the recipes from this month in your mailbox, sign up here: Slow Cooker Challenge

Adapting Your Favorite Meals To Slow Cooker Cooking
We all have favorite dishes that everyone in the family enjoys. Why not adapt them to the slow cooker so you can enjoy them even on the busiest of days or when you’re not really in the mood to cook. What Can You Slow Cook? While not every single recipe lends itself to preparing it in the slow cooker, you’ll be surprised how many dishes do. Soups, stew, and casseroles are a no brainer. But have you tried making your famous spaghetti sauce in the slow cooker? Just cook some pasta. When it’s ready, dinner is served. Or how about cooking your grandma’s meatloaf recipe in the crockpot?

Slow Cooker Month: Slow Cooker Turkey Pot Pie
Pot pies have always been a favorite of mine. As a child, I ate a chicken pot pie almost every Friday night because my parents ate fish and I am allergic to it! Since then, I have been a fan! I don’t often have time to make a traditional chicken or turkey pot pie from scratch and bake it in a pie crust. So this is a simpler take on it. Don’t let the list of ingredients intimidate you. I do all the chopping the night before and store the ingredients in the fridge (or buy precut items if you are short on time!). In the morning, just spray your…
