My Crockpot Craze

I like writing about slow cookers.  Over the many years I have been writing recipes, I have become good friends with my crock pot.  It’s reliable, efficient, and has helped keep me organized through some pretty hectic times.  Before I started writing recipes, I didn’t use it for much more than cholent, and some odd dinners when I knew I would be away.  Lately though, crock pots are a “hot“ topic with food writers, so I started experimenting more and more.  Suffice it to say, I am now a fan.  They are simple to use,  slow cooked food somehow always tastes great, and the best part is that it’s warm just when you need it.
