Ok so I suck at cooking I will freely admit it, but I am beginning to want to do something about it! So I have gone out an bought myself a 6quart crock pot and joined a crock pot recipes yahoo message group! I figure what better than learning a bunch of easy recipes that you put together and walk away from for the day to come back to an awesome meal!
I am so excited so far I have made a roast and bbq sandwiches from our leftover brisket, but those are both things I have done before. Starting tomorrow I will begin making things I have never made before soooo wish me luck that both I and the kids will eat it! hehehe
So here are a few of the recipes I am gonna start with this weekend:
Sweet and Sour Meatballs:
1 Jar Heinz Chili Sauce
1/2 cup Maple Syrup
6-10 dashes of Soy sauce
Pinch of pepper
Pinch chili powder
and of course the pre-made meatballs cause I am all about convenience! lol
Add all the ingredients to the crock pot, stir and heat on low for 3-4 hrs. Stir occasionally to mix flavors together to full potential!
