This weeks challenge will be focused around that convenient little appliance called a crockpot! One of my favorite ways to prepare a meal. What can be easier than to fill this little gem with ingredients, plug it in and turn it on!!! You can go on about your day, go to work, shopping or whatever your day has in store for you, only to return to a delicious homemade meal ready to serve and eat. It has a couple of other perks too!! Your kitchen stays clean, and the smell of your meal cooking is always a plus!! With a little planning, a Crockpot can make life a little more convenient and save time later.
Another benefit of the CrockPot is that it doesn't heat up the kitchen. This is makes it great for summertime cooking. It's an any-season appliance. You'll be pleased smelling the delicious aroma of your food cooking all day long in the fall, winter and spring. So break out that fabulous little appliance and use it for some great home cooked meals that save time and still allows you to prepare a fabulous home cooked meal for your family!
For your challenge this week, not only do I want you to share a layout with your favorite crockpot recipe, but I'd love to see a photo and some journaling as to why this meal is special to your family.
My life is so busy as yours is I'm sure...my crockpot is one of my favorite appliances and is used probably more than my stove. I work all day and hit the gym and it seems like there is no time left for cooking! My crockpot saves me alot of time and money.
I have compiled a cookbook of my favorite crockpot recipes...granted it hasn't been scrapped. I'll be handing outoneof these in the near future to the winner of some of the upcoming contests we'll be having. If you haven't signed up for the G45 scraplift contest you should!! I've extended it by a week and the prize is awesome!!!
make sure you check out the details below!
Thanks for playing,
Debbie
hi! just found your blog - i have been scrapping a recipe book for each of the boys to have when they move out of all of their fave recipes. my most recent LO (http://pezadoodle.wordpress.com/2009/11/07/scs-challenges-recipe-for-yall/) is a crock pot recipe that is a huge hit for anyone who eats it - doesn't fit your challenge tho as i only have the recipe - no photos. i will keep an eye on your challenges!
