You know I like trying out new recipes, maybe the word like is an understatement. I LOVE trying out new recipes, so it’s no wonder I really liked this slow cooker Mediterranean chicken recipe. Boy this was good. I decided to live on the edge too, made a double batch so there’s some in the freezer for later.
I’ll admit it, I am love my slow cooker. I used to wonder if it was just a passing fancy, but the longer I have one and the more I use it, the more I LOVE it! Tell me I’m not the only one.
