It's Thursday again and that means Sandra is hosting Slow Cooking Thursday again. I don't cook big meals as much in the summer, but it really is nice to use the slow cooker now because it doesn't heat up the house like the oven does!

our a/c went out - so i'm thinking the slow cooker is the way to go until it gets fixed!
ReplyDeleteMari this sounds so good and quick! Adding it to next weeks meals.
ReplyDeletehaven't been here in awhile for obvious reasons and what do i find on a day back in the blog reading groove...one of mari's famous food posts. GOTTA love your blog!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks good Mari!!
ReplyDeleteI never would have placed nutmeg in this combination. I guess that's why I rely on other's recipes. My own sense of what spices go with things is pretty poor. This looks really good.
ReplyDeleteLooks really good Mari :)
ReplyDeleteI don't use my slow cooker as often as I should.
ReplyDeleteLove this recipe. I think everything tastes better with a little nutmeg. :-D
I had a chicken tetrazini last week and commented on how much I liked it but never make it. This looks really easy and of course I love my crock pot.
ReplyDeleteUmmmm!
ReplyDeleteYummy! Do you use a smallest slow cooker for that?
