    balsamic roast with carrots and potatoes in slow cookerWow. Seemingly overnight the weather got just a bit warmer, the grass started to get just a little green and life suddenly got super busy. Like I mentioned the other day, just because spring is here does not mean you need to pack away the slow cooker. There are tons of great recipes to keep you cranking right on through what I'm going to guess is a busy season at your house too! And I love nothing more than giving a fresh spin to a classic recipe that be sure to keep your family on task and on time for dinner!

    Middle school track in in full swing which means picking up the dude from school right at dinner time. Convenient, right? Sure is nice when I know that dinner is done and waiting for us at home! No stress if something takes a little longer or we want to run a quick errand.

      Served this for a special lunch and the flavours were delicious, and the meat and vegetables were cooked perfectly. It had a little too much liquid for us, so we made a gravy from the juices and poured it back over the meat and vegetables. Gorgeous.
