Slow Cooker Saturday

So I am starting a new weekly blog post. We will see how long I stick with it :) I'm trying to be a better blogger, so hopefully having a weekly post will help. 

In an attempt to save time and money, I have decided to break out out the crock pot! I have always loved to put a big pot roast in the crockpot before I leave in the morning and then have a hot dinner when I get home. But that is as far as it has gone, pot roast. I have been researching all the things you can make in a crockpot and I am amazed! So heres the scoop. I am going to make one meal a week in my crockpot and share the results with you on Saturday's. I found a blogger who used hers every day last year and blogged all of her recipes and results. You can check out her blog here. I feel certain some of her recipes will be showing up on my weekly menu as well. My goal is that I will be able to save money by not eating out as much and utilizing the leftovers from my crockpot creations. 

What about you? Do you like to crockpot? Do you have any recipes to share?

Be looking for the first recipe and recap next Saturday!
