Tis the season...
No, I'm not talking about Christmas. With the start of school, thus me heading back to the classroom, cooking becomes even more of a chore for me. I am not a fan of cooking, but I do want our meals to be healthy but if they are quick then even better. Well in comes the Crock Pot. I love my Crock Pot, although I could use a bigger one. It sometimes is a pain getting the meal ready the night before but I love it the next day when I can just throw everything in there in the morning, add some spices and meat and it is good to go. Tonight I cut up a bunch of fresh tomato, zucchini and onion from my dad's garden and threw in some red pepper. Tomorrow morning, my first day of work, I will throw this in with some ground beef, some herbs and such and tomorrow night our spaghetti sauce will be ready. There is enough here so that I will be able to freeze a batch once it is all cooked and I will have another quick and easy meal. Thank goodness for Crock Pots and freezers!

Oh my gosh, Laurel....that looks SO good! I'm a huge fan of slow-cooking....and bulk cooking! Anything to make life a little easier! lol!

LOVE my crock pot too!!! Um, yeah, would LOVE the recipe you used here too. lol That sounds delish!
now, i'm hungry:)
Wow thihs looks great; and now I'm hungry!
I have such a love/hate relationship with my crockpot. I LOVE the idea of it but I don't always love the outcome. Seems that most of my dishes end up tasting the same. :( I guess I need to just keep on trying. Your sauce sounds delicious!!
I am trying to go back to work full time and know I'll rely on the crockpot or we'll be eating take out every other night and that is not good.
