I have a confession to make

I am finding a new love for my crockpot. To be honest the only thing I have ever been brave enough to make is my moms chilli (which is FABULOUS by the way)

I started with a really easy Cheesy Chicken from this AMAZING blog Crockpot 365 she has a recipe for every day of the year. She has since been published but I spent HOURS on her site the other day perusing and picky some recipes I wanted to try.

The Cheesy Chicken was AMAZING so I went back to find my next creation


Apple Crisp! One of my FAV desserts get recipe here


It was pretty easy to make

Opps don't forget to take the stickers off the apples when you wash them (my bad lol)
Voila!
The finished product *(with vanilla ice cream of coarse)
And it looks so good and the recipe boast that it is super YUMMY and delicious and I made it to the "t" with what is says on the recipe and I let it cook for the exact time and I am SO READY to bit into this ewey gooey goodness...


It looks SO delicious..

But it was not. Now I am not sure how its even POSSIBLE to make a bad apple crisp? But this was not good.

And then I thought.. Ok lets let it sit overnight and stew in its juices?

Yep still not good. Its SO BAD the hubby cringed and would not even try any more.. (and that my friends speaks VOLUMES because the man will eat anything!)

Soo if anyone has a FABULOUS crock pot recipe for Apple crisp I would LOVE to hear it.. Or any other fabulous recipes for the crock pot because I am NOT giving up! I will master this thing!

PS Even Daisy will not touch it. She sniffs it then sneezes? I wonder what went wrong?

PPS I am not looking to bash anyone's site, I LOVE the site and I will be returning 100 times over for other recipes to try and I am EVEN GOING TO BUY HER BOOK! And it may not even be the recipe it may just be me. And that I am ruined because my mothers apple crisp is SO darn good!

Mom's big chunk Chilli!

So I finally buckled and asked for the recipe. See we have a pot-luck at lunch the other day at work and this lady made chilli. It was not good. But it did give me the hankering for some REALLY GOOD chilli and I emailed my mom for her recipe.

Is it not funny how EVERYTHING is better when mom makes it? This is the first time I have tried her recipe on my own and so far so good!

The ingredients!! Its seems very easy to make


Everything getting thrown into the crock pot. My mom makes it on the stove old school, but she modified it for those who want a quick no hassle dinner.

Everything ready to go!!


2 hours later (only took 20 minutes prep time)

VOILA!!



And if I must toot my own horn it was AWESOME!!
