Thursdays Are For Cooking!
This one comes from Betty C again, and it not only looks good; it also looks easy and it only requires a small amount of elbow grease plus your good old Crockpot. The recipe notes say it should give you up to 10 servings. Not only is it easy to fix, but when you come […]

Make-ahead things like shredded chicken or shredded beef, stuff to […]
