Crock Pot Pulled Pork


This Crock Pot Pulled Pork could not be any easier. Only two ingredients needed for a delicious, moist, pulled pork that can be served in so many ways!

This is another crock pot recipe that I have made while camping 🙂 Put the roast and root beer in the crock pot in the morning and return the campsite in the evening for a delicious meal. Serve on buns plain or with BBQ sauce. I like a little crunch so I like to add shredded cabbage to my sandwich or forgo the bun altogether and just eat the pork over the cabbage. I also like this pulled pork over a baked potato. If you like sauerkraut, that is also a taste addition. So many options when it comes to serving this meat.

Peanut Butter Banana Cups



If you have a sweet tooth, this recipe for Peanut Butter Banana Cups is one that you have to try. They are super easy to put together and then you just wait for them to freeze.

I did not add the additional powdered sugar that was mentioned in the recipe to help prevent the peanut butter mixture from softening too quickly. I can hardly wait more than a minute to eat the PB cups once I take them out the fridge so softening too quickly wasn’t an issue for me.

Crock Pot Lazy Lasagna



My kids love lasagna but I don’t always have the time to make or bake it. This Crock Pot Lazy Lasagna is a quick and easy recipe that I can throw in the crock pot in the morning and know that dinner will be ready to serve when we arrive home that evening.

My kids enjoy this meal so we’ve made it multiple times. It is not my favorite so I make sure that I have a salad on hand or some steamable veggies to serve alongside this meal. Garlic bread is also an addition that we frequently make. A few minutes in the air fryer and the cheesy garlic bread is ready to serve.

Beef Pad Thai



I’m not an expert on Thai food but I really liked this Beef Pad Thai! The flavor was amazing and it was a nice light pasta dish.

My kids all inhaled this dish as well. It wasn’t a dish that they reached for when they had their choice of leftovers but they had no complaints eating it the night I made it. I was ok with that since the leftovers all came my way!

Crock Pot BBQ Ranch Sausage Meal



I needed a meal ready to go when I walked in the door after work and this meal fit the bill. This Crock Pot BBQ Ranch Sausage Meal is a FULL meal. Meat, potato, and veggie all cooked together and ready to serve.

The kids were surprised to see that this meal is what came out of the crock pot. Crock pot meals are not typically their favorite but there were no complaints at all as they ate this meal. It wasn’t my favorite but it wasn’t bad either.

Baked Pasta with Sausage


I was on the lookout for a new pasta recipe to serve the night before a big meet. This Baked Pasta with Sausage sounded like a yummy option. It did not disappoint. It was liked by all 😋

It did make a fairly big batch of pasta. In the future, I think I may consider halving the recipe and instead serving it with a side of veggies or maybe a side salad. The kids would insist on garlic bread as well.

BBQ Chicken Pizza


We don’t eat pizza often in our house so it’s a treat for the kids when we do. Most times, the kids request plain cheese pizza…sometimes I add in mushrooms and spinach too. To mix things up a bit, this time we made a BBQ Chicken Pizza instead.

I’ve had a craving for BBQ sauce lately so when I saw this recipe, it sounded perfect. I loved the BBQ Pizza and so did Lexie. Kenxie said it was good and Xander said it was ok but he prefers regular cheese pizza. Can’t make everyone happy!
