Golden Angel

Awhile ago my friend @sam-winchester-hunting-log did a post for an easy dinner. That helped me so here’s my help.

I have a 4 quart crockpot (or slow cooker crockpot is just the brand). They’re relatively  cheap. I got mine for $20 at Walmart. These things are durable and last forever. Seriously, my grandma has had hers since the 60′s and it runs like a dream. Only problem is that they take longer to cook, but they’re perfect if you just want to toss together your stuff and leave it until it’s done. No babysitting required.

I love this thing and I cook in it at least once a week. All these recipes have fed me and my roommate both for at least three days and they all cost $15 or under.

chicken tacos

1 package of chicken tenders

1 taco seasoning packet

Tortillas

And cheese, sour cream, etc. whatever you want on tacos you choose.

Toss the chicken and taco seasoning packet into the crockpot, don’t add water, you won’t need it. And cook on high for 2 hours. Then assemble taco as you see fit.

________

Mac and Cheese

16 ounce Elbow Macaroni (or whatever pasta you desire. Don’t let your dreams be dreams, y’all)

4 table spoons salted butter

1 12 ounce can of evaporated milk

1 1/2 cups half&half

3 cups shredded cheddar cheese

3/4 pound (12 ounces) of white American cheese

Salt & Pepper to taste

Boil pasta on the stove until al dente drain water and then stir in butter until melted. Add everything to the crockpot and stir to combine then let cook on low for 1.5-2 hours.

*One thing bout Mac and cheese, you can’t have too much cheese. This recipe is a guide, just let your soul tell you how much cheese to add. Love yourself.*

_______________

Easy roast

This one might cost a little more than $15 because roasts can be like that, but trust me, it’s worth it.

1 ranch dressing seasoning packet

1 packet of Au Jus seasoning

1 stick of butter

5 or so banana peppers

And the roast

Put in roast, toss other stuff on top and let it cook for 6-8 hours on high. You can add potatoes and carrots if you want to, add them at the beginning with everything else so they cook as well.

Here’s one of my favorites

Chocolate lava cake

Cake:

1 cup all purpose flour

3/4 cup sugar

3 tablespoons cocoa powder

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup milk

1/3 cup melted butter

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Grease your crockpot and add cake batter

Lava part:

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1 1/2 cups hot water

Mix together both sugars and cocoa powder and sprinkle on top of cake batter. Dump hot water on top. Don’t mix it. Then cook on high for 3 hours. This is by far my favorite dessert I’ve ever made.
