As far as easy comfort food goes, particularly for the cooler months of the year, it’s hard to beat a good, savory soup. This Easy Taco Soup has a hearty flavor to it, and after a bit of prep,  the slow cooker does the rest of the work for you.

 

After making my second batch of spaghetti meat sauce for the season not too long ago, I was looking for something a little different. (Don’t get me wrong; I love the spaghetti sauce recipe that I adapted from what Mother used to make, but I do like to mix things up, and it would be a shame to get bored with something like that.)  This soup recipe keeps it really easy and low-hassle, and it has some of that Southwestern flavor in which I like to indulge, now and then.

Quick tip: Instead of tortilla chips you could serve this with fresh, homemade bread.

How can you make it any easier than this?  With this One-Pot Honey Garlic Chicken and Veggies recipe for your slow cooker, you have about the most hassle-free family meal imaginable! Hey, I love my elaborate meals, but we just don’t have the time and energy for them all the time, do we?  This sweet and savory flavor combination is sure to be enjoyed by people of all ages and tastes, and you won’t even have to spend any time fussing over a stove!

Those crushed red pepper flakes bring a little bit of heat to this dish. And my, oh my do the vegetables taste great when they’ve spent a few hours in the loving care of the slow cooker! There really is no need for a side dish – however, fresh bread would go so well with this (and people are going to want to use it to scrape every last drop of these delicious flavors on their plate!)

Quick tip: If you want the chicken thighs to have a crispy, brown skin, you can broil them for a few minutes before serving.

A Down-Home Classic, Made Easy, With a Little Twist

Love chicken pot pie but aren’t so fond of the crust? Or maybe you don’t mind the crust, but your little ones do? Want something tasty and easy to make? Try this.

When I was little, I loved the flavors in the pot pies that Mother brought home from the freezer section at the supermarket. (My favorite brand was Marie Callender’s.) For a long time, I wasn’t very fond of the crust, though (it didn’t help that the edges of the crust burn so easily on those frozen ones if you cook them in the oven, as intended). Once I got a little older, I came to like the crust more. But when I would ask Mother, “Why don’t you make something like this yourself?” she usually would say something along the lines of “Well, pastries just aren’t my strong suit. All that effort it would take to make a good crust, I’d just rather do something else.” And this was from someone who had no qualms about spending two hours standing over a stove to get a roux for gumbo just right, the old fashioned way.

Even some really good cooks just aren’t very confident about certain aspects of baking. And some people (children especially, I guess) just aren’t crazy about the crust on a pot pie, even if they like everything in it and love how it tastes otherwise. Solution:  drop that crust and break out your slow cooker.
