When we breezed through Tarshay registering for our wedding, I thoughtfully moved past the slow cookers without adding it to our list. I had no interest whatsoever. For some reason, I ended up adding it at the last minute and to date, it has been our most used wedding gift ever. We got married in the fall, so slow cooked comfort food was often on the menu, including slow cooker chili {￩ best chili recipe ever filled with 26 amazing ingredients} in heavy rotation for college game day Saturdays.
Little did I know that the slow cooker isn’t just for fall/winter recipes. I would get a little sad when it went into hibernation for the cold weather seasons. Thanks to Pinterest {and yes, I do have a Pinterest board dedicated entirely to slow cooker recipes}, I found so many recipes that aren’t heavy or indulgent for these hot summer days.
In this edition of Friday’s Fab Five, I hope you enjoy my roundup of summer slow cooked recipes that allow you to set it and forget it! I love coming home to an amazing meal that’s filling my house with the smell of home cooked deliciousness!
