Slow Cooker Dishes | Unruly Bliss

Early this past summer, two of my amazing girlfriends, Katie and Lindsay, came to stay with us for a weekend. We had a fantastic time eating, drinking, and shopping at the “World’s Largest Garage Sale” {it really is called that}. One night we decided to stay in for dinner because Katie suggested a delicious slow cooker recipe that we could start in the early afternoon and come home to 6 hours later. I’ve never been huge on soups {aside from my four favorites that I’ve posted on this site} so I was a tiny bit skeptical. Well never underestimate a woman who works full time at a college, takes care of a family, and owns a CrossFit gym. We loved this soup and have made it several times since. I usually take a recipe and adapt it to be more of my own, but this one I never alter. It’s perfectly delicious as is. {Incredibly simple too!}

Chilly weather and warm stew, need I say more? This version is lighter than most but tastes all the more delicious for it!

Do you own a Crock-Pot? My mother got one for Justin and I way back when we first moved in together. We were just starting to cook together in the kitchen and my mom was wonderful, constantly supplying us with new kitchen gear and gadgets – a frying wok, a food processor {from the 80s}, a beautiful red dutch oven…and a Crock-Pot! I remember getting it and thinking, What am I going to do with that? Crock-Pots are for moms. No they’re not. Crock-Pots are for geniuses! These little cookers are amazing and I love everything that has ever come out of it {well almost}.

One of the first meals I made when we moved to our new home was this White Chicken Chili. We had both sets of our parents visiting and I served it over rice and topped the bowls with sour cream. I put out a bowl of chips for scooping and it was amazing. I have altered the recipe a lot now and I don’t serve it over rice anymore but it is still a major hit every time I make it. {Might even enter into the company chili cook-off this year!} This chili makes your house smell amazing and your mouth incredibly happy.
