Crockpot Honey Chicken

I'm a fan of crockpot meals. They are among the easiest and most delicous in my book. This is called Honey Chicken. It's similar to teriyaki chicken, so if you like that, you'll love this. It's delicious served over rice or with chow mein.

Slow Cooker Ham & Beans

This is a comfort food. I remember eating this when I was a kid. Simmered on the stovetop and probably made from leftover Easter or Christmas ham. I cheated and made mine in the Slow Cooker and with a ham steak. Still delicious, much easier and yep... comforting! This would be a great dinner on a fall or winter night!
