Hi everyone! My name is Monique, I am a 27 yr old Stay-At-Home mom who unfortunatly is just now learning how to cook lol...hubby bought me a slow cooker and it has literally changed my life!!! No more stressing over if I'm doing something right, just throw a bunch of stuff in, set, and I have the rest of the day to take care of my kids and get things done! I'm here because I am running out of things to make in my slow cooker lol...I want to try new things so hubby doesnt get bored. I'm trying my first new recipe today. Chicken Fried Pork Chops in the slow cooker so I'm hoping it comes out right...Wish me luck lol My favorite thing to cook is a whole chicken in the crock pot. I season it with salt, pepper and paprika and stuff apples and garlic inside. It comes out really moist and delicious. My husband LOVES it so that makes me feel really good lol We don't really have any cooking traditions which is why I'm 27 and just now learning how to cook lol My whole chicken in the crockpot is a real hit, also a beef stew that I sometimes make but it makes too much and hubby doesnt really like leftovers so most of it goes to our dog I tried to make risotto...it turned out HORRIBLE lol
