WELCOME

Welcome to this slow cooker/crockpot blog. I believe slow cookers are the best thing to happen to modern day cooks. I used mine often when I worked outside the home and continue to do so even in retirement. It is so nice to put food on and forget about it. Slow cookers also allow us to cook many things we would normally have to use the oven for; what a relief in hot Texas weather! Some of these recipes are mine, many are ones I have collected over the years.

STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS

1 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup pesto sauce
6 skinless boneless chicken breasts, pound out thin
salt and pepper to suit your taste
1/2 (10 1/2-oz size) can cream of mushroom soup
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup white cooking wine
fresh basil leaves for garnish, if desired

In small mixing bowl combine the cheeses and pesto; place a dollop on each of the chicken breast.  Roll chicken breast around the mixture and secure with a wooden toothpick.

Season rolls with salt and pepper then place in crock pot or slow cooker.

In a mixing bowl whisk together the soup, milk, and wine (or chicken broth); pour over the chicken in the cooker.

Place lid on cooker and cook 4 to 6 hours on low or 3 to 4 hours on high.
