Well, here we are, in the midst of the January doldrums. The holidays are over. New Years resolutions may still be happening (I'm about 50/50), and some may have fallen by the wayside. All I know is, it's crock pot season. I adore my crock pot with the tenacity of a kid in a candy store, and I use it quite frequently. In the summer, it keeps the house cool, in the winter, you can make yummy soups and casseroles that are hearty, but not time consuming. And now that it's January, I can use it to make some low fat deliciousness that is warm, hearty and not too bad for the ole waistline. Check it out!
