I’m definitely on a crock pot kick lately, and here’s another one I whipped up a week or so ago. It was a big hit with the hubby! I slightly adapted the original recipe from The Roasted Root . I like that this meal doesn’t make a gigantic pot of food, so it’s the perfect size for both of us to have for 2 nights of dinners.
Give it a try!
