I love my crock pot! I have had mine for over 10 years! It's a Rival and works fabulous! A great investment! It has off, warm, high and for me does the job great. I have had to learn to keep the lid shut and quit checking it
I love the way it makes my house smell, it's so nice to come in and know dinners almost done!! Stew is my favorite, I just use one of those mixes and follow the back directions. It's easy as pie! LOL! Pot roat, chili, cheese dip, soup, all are super easy to do in your crock pot. I'd say invest in one, they are pretty affordable and not to hard to store. I have found my stores seem to have the best prices around Christmas time. I've seen nice ones for as little as $20. Not bad for something you could use once(or more) a week .
Also great for a party to keep things warm!!!
Cheese dip thats sooo easy and yummy!!
Bob Evens sausage (ground, in a roll ) browned
jar of salsa(opitional)
large block of velveta cheese cut up in to small squares
Add all to your crock pot and leave it for 5 hrs or so on high
Stir and eat!!!! I eat it with nacho chips, Frito scoops, or I LOVE it on a warm tortilla all rolled up like a burrito! Yumm
Now that sounds soo good I think I may have to run to the grocery store after I drop my son off this morning......... hummmm... yep now I know whats for dinner!!! LOL!!
P.S. I wanted to let you know I tried your chocolate brownie cake reciepe for Easter and it was a huge hit!!!!
Thank you!!
