I have a wonderful crock pot. It's not been used very much. Since Nelson has gone back to work I need to pick up some of the cooking and I thought crock pot meals would be an option, but I don't want to wade through the myriads of recipes.
So help me out: what works for you? ")

- I am 54 years old. I have been married for 32 years to one of the most incredible men on the face of the planet. Our journey hasn't been easy, but it's been rich in love, forgiveness, joy, and adventure. I'm learning daily that God really does have a plan for my life. I want to live into whatever that means...however it unfolds. I'm an ESFP with a healthy dose of ADD...I love to help people see how very incredible they are and how much love God wants to lavish on them!

once upon a time, we used to buy a round steak ... cut it up ... put some barby sauce in the crockpot with the steak ... and it was so tender afterwards ... served on rice with veggies ...
that's all i remember ...

You could cut this one down, but it's quite tasty!

Porcupine Meatballs
1 pound ground beef
1 cup uncooked white rice
1 egg, beaten
3 15-oz cans of tomato sauce
Salt, pepper, garlic to taste
Mix the beef, rice, egg, and 8 ounces of tomato sauce in a bowl. Add spices like you would to meatballs (we all do it differently).
Shape into balls about 1 1/2 inches across.
Brown on all sides in a skillet. Drain on paper towel.
Season remaining tomato sauce. Pour 1 cup in the bottom of the crockpot. Slowly add the meatballs, pouring a bit of the tomato sauce over each layer, until all the meatballs are in the pot. Pour any remaining sauce over the top of the meatballs.
Cook on low for 4-6 hours. Serve with green veggies on the side.
