Its been a crazy busy week!! The week ahead looks to be just as crazy busy. This week after school I have PT 3 days, an acupuncture appointment, a work meeting, and I am sure something else I am forgetting. Big Man’s works now until 4:30-5:00 most days.
I have spent quite a bit of time searching crockpot recipes. I pinned them. I even came across information about freeze/make-ahead meals. I am working on making meal time as easy as possible without sacrificing flavor or nutrition.
Sunday: Big Man’s meat sauce over pasta
Monday: Whole Chicken with stuffing, green veg and gravy
Tuesday: Ginger Chicken (recipe from shrinkingjeans.net) with snow peas over rice
Wednesday: London Broil with crockpot baked (white & sweet) potatoes
Thursday: Spicy Pork & Chili Pepper Goulash (jamie oliver)
Friday: Big Man’s Chili with leftover baked potatoes
What’s your favorite trick to stay organized in the kitchen? What’s your favorite crockpot (or slowcooker) recipe?
Stay tuned: I am trying to work blogging into this crazy week!! – have to tell you about my sister’s wedding and I should tell you about my bum knee. I even have a giveaway up my sleeve!

I love my crock pot! Stew meats or lean roast with lots of veges are my favorite but I have cooked sweet and sour chicken and serve over rice. I usually cook extra on one weekend day to have leftovers or precooked during the week.
chili is an easy one to make a double batch then freeze half. as is taco meat. we’re having chili and baked potatoes as well
Pot roast is my favorite slow cooker recipe!
Busy week for us too! I’ve been looking at fall dishes for my menus but haven’t ventured to the slow cooker yet. I have soups on the brain!
