As you may know by now, I’ve had to change my diet to low carbs.   Today’s Crockpot Tuesday recipe fits the bill for that, but also made the kiddos (who don’t need low-carb) very happy.  In fact, my 10 year old who doesn’t like pork at all asked for seconds. Today’s recipe is called Seasoned [...]

I named this dish Chicken & Spinach Kid’s Delight because all four of my kid’s actually loved it and I got them to eat spinach.   In the past when I have made Lasagna with spinach they have balked at it.  Not this dish.  My 5 year old even asked to have the leftovers for lunch [...]

As a kid, I loved when my mom made Chop Suey on the stovetop.  My favorite part was always the water chestnuts.  Unfortunately for me, when I made my Crockpot Pork Suey, I didn’t have any water chestnuts in the house, but I went ahead and made the dish anyways.  Even without the Water Chestnuts [...]
