I love a good slow cooker recipe. There is nothing better than coming into the house at the end of the day and having the whole apartment smell amazing. Plus, slow cooker meals usually require fewer dishes to wash and the results are melt in your mouth delicious. In a quest to continuously expand our recipe repetoire, we tried two new recipes this week. This one needed no adaptations. It is great just as is. It’s like take out, but without the guilt.
