My Mother-in-Law came to help before I had my baby and she cooked up this meal. Sometimes I feel like a lot of my slow cooker meals taste the same but this was so different! It is so easy to throw together and it is delicious!!!

I must also add that I absolutely love the recipes that you and your sisters post. Each time I make them I am so impressed and happy with how they turn out. I tell all my friends who get crockpots to check out your site! My new favorite is the Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Chicken. Not only is it easy (3 ingredients!) but it is delicious! My boyfriend even called it "excellent" when he tried some!
