Another great recipe for busy weeknights. Only a handful ingredients for this flavorful crockpot meal! Serve over noodles or potatoes.
Aren’t dump and dash crockpot meals the best? I can barely keep my head above water during the week with work, children’s activities and my bakery side hustle. I love preparing in advance and knowing that I don’t have to cook a meal at the end of the day when I am EXHAUSTED.
PS-Make sure not to wear Apple Air Pods while preparing this meal. I actually lost a pod and had to dig around to get it out. Sigh..
