15 Super Yummy Crock Pot Recipes

Ok guys. Colder weather has finally reached the good ol’ state of North Carolina, and warm and toasty meals are an absolute must in my household. I don’t even have to tell you that a full and steamy cup of joe within arm’s reach is also a requirement since you already know that I have a slight coffee addiction 😉

And when I say slight… I kinda mean… yes, but I’m not ready to admit it.

Isn’t that the first step of admitting a problem or something of that nature? Well, fine. Here it goes.

Deep breath in…. and out again…

I have a mild coffee addiction.

{Vanilla Latte}

Woohoooo! That DID feel great. Just saying it out loud to you truly amazing and wonderful people was awesome!

Ok, now we can move on to the good stuff. FOOD! What do you like on a cold and blustery day?

{Broccoli and Cheese Soup}

Personally, I prefer thick and chunky crock pot recipes. I’m talking filled a mile high with veggies of every color and flavor, and then just a little bit of chicken.

However, Mike (aka. super talented hubby) on the other hand would much rather enjoy a pot full of meat.

{Pot Roast}

Literally. Just meat.

We really are polar opposites when it comes to food. I’ve always been a veggie girl, and he’ll always be a carnivore.

Did you know that when we first started dating and for about the first year or two of our marriage I was a vegetarian? True story! I had been living the vegetarian lifestyle for about eight years, and one day I just decided to add chicken back into my diet.

Now granted, I still find myself avoiding red meat, and I go without meat at least one meal a day.

{Honey Garlic Chicken & Veggies}–this is a MUST try! We have made it a multiple times.

I have to admit though. . . chicken is the one thing that I always miss whenever I revert back to my vegetarian ways. There’s just something about the flavor that drives me wild!

Ok, ok. Not like… WILD… but more like… whewww… wild. LOL. Yes. I know. I just reread that sentence and I know it sounds absolutely absurd, but it makes me giggle so it stays. Heaven help me when people start approaching me in the streets quoting my craziness from the blog!

{Spinach Artichoke Dip}

{Dr. Pepper Pulled Pork}

{French Dip}

{BBQ Meatballs}

{Beef and Broccoli}

{Taco Soup}

This yummy concoction is a TSU “house dish” and can most definitely be created on the stove or crock pot. Whatever floats your boat!

Now… let’s move onwards towards… the desserts!!

{Chocolate Lava Cake}

{Apple Dump Cake}

{French Toast Casserole}

{Fudge}

And apparently …. I can’t count, but who can resist a pecan pie…. lucky number 16!
