Crockpot Baked Potatoes

Vegetarian

I love baked potatoes! Especially Crockpot Baked Potatoes! They are an easy side dish that can be filled with anything! Sometimes though, they can hold up your dinner if they don’t cook long enough in the oven. If you want to take that worry away, you can make them right in your crockpot! They come out soft and delicious and you don’t have to worry about timing them around your main course. You let them slow cook away and they will be ready just in time. They will also save you on oven space since these will be cooked elsewhere. All you need to get ready is all of your favorite toppings, you can watch the butter and cheese melt right in and your ready to eat!  Continue reading “Crockpot Baked Potatoes”

Jerk Chicken Egg Rolls

These egg rolls are amazing! Just packed with flavor thanks to the jerk seasoning. Now you don’t have to use the seasoning listed but we used this on recommendation of some friends who were raised on Jamaican food and they said that Grace’s was the way to go! If you have your own brand that you prefer, go ahead and use it. I prefer the slow cooker for the chicken since it makes the chicken nice and easy to shred.  Continue reading “Jerk Chicken Egg Rolls”
