• Crock Pot Barbequed Salami

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes.

  My nana didn’t make cookies. She didn’t make tea sandwiches. She didn’t make cute food like fruit, desserts, hors d’oeuvres, cordials or ganache. But she made amazing, hearty dishes in mass quantity like spaghetti and brisket and homemade potato salad. But anyone in my family could tell you that the one dish that she was […]

  Crock Pot Beet Salad

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes, Side dishes, vegetarian.

  In the midst of summer heat, I love to use my crock pot to cook the season’s ripe vegetables. My kitchen stays cool and my taste buds get to dance.  This week, I had friends bring me fresh beets from their community CSA. I love roasting beets in a little bit of olive oil, salt […]

• Crock Pot Cincinnati Chili

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes.

  If you are unfamiliar with Cincinnati chili, let me explain to you how this is different from what you might think. This is more like a spaghetti sauce, than a stew. It usually has some combination of allspice, cinnamon and sometimes cocoa powder in it. There are no beans cooked in this pot and it is […]

• Crock Pot Chicken and Quinoa

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes, Side dishes.

  This is great sick food. Not food that will make you sick, but a food that falls into the same category as matzah ball soup, egg drop soup and homemade mashed potatoes– these foods all make you feel better! I’ll warn you that this dish is very bland, so if you’d like to eat it […]

  Crock Pot Stuffing Balls

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes, Side dishes, vegetarian.

  Stuffing is an under-appreciated side dish. It completely defines a Thanksgiving dinner and can sometimes be found at kitschy homecooking restaurants, but there is no reason to leave it alone for the rest of the year. Plus, it’s a great way to use leftover or stale bread. The more variety you use in your bread […]

  Crock Pot Vegetarian Chicken Chili

  Posted on by Valerie in Recipes, Side dishes, vegetarian.

  Did you catch the title?? Does it sound like a contradiction to say “vegetarian” and then “chicken” in the same meal?! It is not. Thanks to modern day culinary creativity, I can make chicken chili for friends that don’t want to eat meat.  This is a pretty easy recipe, but I like that it is […]

• Crock Pot Cabbage Roll Casserole

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes.

  One of my favorite dishes that my grandmother made is cabbage rolls, but honestly– who has time for all the steps?! I have made them before in the crock pot (use the search function to see my recipe) but today’s version is even easier. It has almost all the same components, but only takes a […]

  Posted on by Valerie in Dinner, Recipes.

  Hear ye, hear ye…. thy dinner is potting! Thy royal family shall enjoy a delicious banquet of wild bird prepared in a lavish sauce that is truly fit for a king. Only, I don’t have a royal chef, a housekeeping staff, a castle moat or a dragon. I think the term “a la king” actually refers to the […]
