I purchased this several months ago (Amazon open box as I do often. It was missing a manual but I figured I could get one online). I was very worried I was paying a boat load of money for what was quite possibly an overrated slow cooker (which I already
Marinated Flank Steak
My family has made this recipe for many years and it’s a great way to cook a piece of flank steak. Flank steak is a tough piece of meat but very flavorful and cutting thinly across the grain makes it a wonderful piece of beef. Start by combining 1/4 C.
Cottage Cheese Salad
This isn’t so much a recipe as it is a memory. When I was a little girl and through my teen years, my favorite place to eat was The Golden Lamb in Lebanon Ohio. It’s Ohio’s oldest inn, and when you’re eating there you can tour the inn where many
Clone of a Claussen- Refrigerator Dill Pickles
We love dill pickles, particularly the kind that are refrigerated and never cooked because they’re so fresh and crisp. And they’re very low in calories, a great snack. Maddie could eat them all day. But they are SO expensive. Since I found this recipe I’ve been making them about once

Easy Ranch Blue Cheese Dressing
I feel so Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade when I make this. Although I have to admit to secretly loving that show (especially the Halloween specials). Favorite part? Cocktail with every meal. My kinda gal. Yes it’s easy but yes it’s very fresh tasting with the sour cream and fresh garlic. Add
Red Potato Salad with Bacon
This is a nice fresh alternative to traditional potato salad and of course with bacon it’s irresistible. Start by boiling and cooling about 6 red potatoes. These were larger sized. Cut into bite-sized pieces. Fry and crumble 5 pieces of bacon. We prefer it pretty crisp for this recipe. Chop
