For this recipe I used my 3.5 Quart Crock Pot Slow Cooker. This slow cooker is my favorite around the holidays to lend a helping hand while getting all the food ready for company. It frees up oven space while not taking up a ton of room on the counter. Its perfect for casseroles, dips, and other recipes that don’t require a bigger pot. For our family get together’s we usually do a potluck type gathering, where someone each brings a dish to help with all the cooking. Usually we have it at my moms house so I end up having to transport my dish. This slow cooker makes transport super easy with its locking lid that goes from the base of the slow cooker to the lid to ensure that it wont go anywhere. If your looking for a helping hand this year you need to get one of these, click on the link to check it out!!
