Easy Summer Meal Plan, Tasty Bean Goulash, Cucumber Salad And More!

July 26, 2010 by 4 Comments

Tips:

Do we love our crock pots or what? Especially in the hot summer months. Even though we think of the crock pot as being a semi new invention, it really isn’t. For thousands of years, people have been using the technique of slowly cooking in one pot as their primary and easiest way to fix a meal.

The only difference between then and now is that they had to let their pots slowly cook over a hot open fire where we are blessed to be able to slow cook in a pot with the heat contained within it. We do love that wonderful man who invented our modern day crock pot. So get your crock pots out and start using them on those hot summer days.

  • To make clean up easier always spray or grease your crock pot with oil.
  • Use crock pots for other things like hot bean or cheese dips.

    That Angelic Strawberry Dessert looks real good. I just bought some beautiful strawberries on Saturday, so I now have a great way to use them. Thanks.

    I was so hungry for a good dessert, that I made the Angelic Strawberry Dessert last night. It is so good! It even looks pretty, and could be made for a special occasion. This is one of the best cakes I’ve ever had.
