Favorite crockpot recipes?
Hey ladies! Hope everyone has been having a nice relaxing holiday so far. My lovely husband got me a crock pot as one of my gifts - I feel so wife-y - and now I want to start playing, so I figured I'd check with you ladies to get some of your favorite recipes. Chili? Stew? Dips? I love em all.
Re: Favorite crockpot recipes?
DH and I love this pork. We use the leftovers and make cuban sandwiches.

Currently I'm making this. I made it a couple of weeks ago and Kyle loved it so much that I'm making it again already.
Another favorite of mine is to throw a pork tenderloin, a chopped onion, a chopped green pepper, 2 cloves of garlic diced and a bottle of hickory bbq sauce in the crockpot and cook on low for ~8 hours. It's super easy and tastes delicious. It's great to cook when I know I'll be busy in the evening but know that I won't have much time in the morning to cook either.
Now jumping domestically.
Well that was a crazy couple of years.
This mac & cheese is so delicious. It takes about 2.5 hours to make, and you could add bacon or cooked chicken as desired. I use a 3.5 quart crockpot for this recipe:

I have a "crockpot and bread machine" board on Pinterest. I really love both of those appliances, and want to use them more.
