My mom used to make these for me when I was a kid, and for some reason, I HATED them!!! Now as an adult, I love their tangy, little bit of spicy, little bit of sweet sauce. And what makes them even better: my kids LOVE them! I serve them over rice with a side of veggies, and they are always gone in minutes. Super duper easy, 3 ingredients and no prep work. You can do crock pot, or just a regular pot on low for about 20 minutes, all the way from frozen meatballs. Done!

Three of my Favorite things to do: cook, eat, and look for new recipes to try! I grew up with a mother that was a great cook and have loved carrying that tradition over into my own home. This is a compilation of recipes that I've tried and liked, where I found them, how I made them, and what I think about them. Cooking is, for me, an expression of love. Enjoy!

Crock Pot Honey Sesame Chicken
I'd been eyeballing this little gem for a couple of weeks before I decided to try it. Cutter loves rice right now so I'm always looking for different things to top it with. Crock pot recipes rarely seem to turn out better than I expect, so I was pretty surprised and happy with this one!
***I did make some major changes: I halved the honey, and probably next time would cut it down to 1/3 cup, then I substituted the canola oil for sesame oil. Much better! I left out the chili flakes for Cutter but next time I will definitely put them in--it could have used a little kick. Served with roasted broccoli--yummm! And so easy! Made the whole house smell great! The chicken was a little dry, but isn't that the norm when you cook it for 2+ hours???

Sweet Potato Turkey Stew
You had me at sweet potatoes. And a can of coconut milk didn't help either. Oh, and crock pot sealed the deal. This recipe is super easy and yummy, and healthy too! Winner!
*It's a little spicy, so leave out the chili sauce for the babies and they will scarf it down, at least mine did!
