Crockpot mania!

When I pulled my crockpot down from the cabinet last week, for some reason I am somewhat obsessed with using it instead of cooking the old fashioned way. It occured to me that it was because...

• Using a crockpot doesn't require me to continue to stir or fry up something
• I can slow cook the hell out of a roast and it will come out 10x more juicy than it does in the oven
• The amount of leftovers is astounding

I'm convinced that my crockpot is the BOMB! How could I just let it sit there and collect cobwebs?? Seriously?? This makes my life 10x more easier. Of course, I love to cook, but for some reason, this week I have been feeling extra lazy about cooking, so I haven't had the desire to do so. Maybe it's because I'm on a break from school, I don't know.

I slowcooked our spaghetti sauce (Prego jarred, shhhh!) with browned up ground beef and it came out so delicious. Next week I plan on trying this recipe for Slow Cooker Adobo Chicken that I found:

Ingredients:

• 1 small sweet onion, sliced
• 8 cloves garlic, crushed
• 3/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/2 cup vinegar
• 1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces

Directions:

Place chicken in a slow cooker. In a small bowl mix the onion, garlic, soy sauce, and vinegar, and pour over the chicken. Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours.

I'll post a review after I cook it. It looks so simple!
