This past weekend and week have been all about slow cooker recipes. I’ve gone on and on about my love for my slow cooker and slow cooker recipes many times before, but seriously, this week she’s been my right and left arms, too!

Favorite Slow Cooker Recipes | addapinch.com

You see, we’re hosting two parties at my house this weekend, an engagement party for one niece and an 18th birthday party for another. As you can imagine, I decided it was the perfect time to clean out pantries, closets, and the cabinets under my bathroom sink.

And then I start thinking, “Why in the world am I cleaning out under my bathroom sink? There is stuff that has been hidden under here for five years for a reason!”

You’d think I’d just concentrate on getting my rugs cleaned and make sure all the light bulbs were working in my lamps, but nooooo, I have to take it 100 steps farther and decide to clean out places that surely no one will ever see during a party.

So, anyway, back to my favorite slow cooker recipes that we’ve survived off of this week plus plenty more that we love.

Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup | addapinch.com

Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup has to be one of the easiest recipes to toss all of the ingredients into the slow cooker and let it go for the day. It tempts me all day long with that glorious smell! Add a little bit of cornbread and we’re set!

BBQ Pork Chops | addapinch.com

Slow Cooker BBQ Pork Chops are so ridiculously easy that it is embarassing to even call it a recipe. But oh are they scrumptious!

Balsamic Roast Beef | addapinch.com

You probably could have guess that my balsamic roast beef had to happen. It is such a great recipe to cook once and then eat at least twice. We had roast and then french dip sandwiches and then stuffed mushrooms. It was heavenly.

If we’d not decided on the balsamic roast beef, this espresso roast beef I shared a while back would have been my go-to! Oh my word, it makes my mouth water just thinking about it.

Chicken Enchiladas Recipe from addapinch.com

And tonight, well these chicken enchiladas are happening in my house. I can’t wait!

Slow Cooker Oatmeal | addapinch.com

At the beginning of the week, I toss steel cut oats into the slow cooker for this overnight slow cooker oatmeal. That along with my slow cooker grits, baked bacon, and hard cooked eggs in the oven or some yogurt and we’ve not realized I hadn’t cooked in the morning!

  10. I’d have to say the balsamic roast beef looks to be amazing to try. I am a huge balsamic fan! What a great giveaway! I have an old Crock Pot that I use twice a week, and this would be a wonderful upgrade!

    Reply

  16. Oh how fun. I still use the crockpot my hubs and I got at our wedding shower…almost 18yrs ago. And I use it 3-4 times a week. Imagine how loved it is 🙂 Programmable? Now that would be awesome! I love making soup in ours!

    Reply

  20. I’m following you on Pinterest and have signed up for the emails! Love your recipe ideas so far!

    The only one I’ve tried is “The Best Chocolate Cake Recipe {Ever}”, I made it this week for a friends birthday. It is delicious and so moist!!! It’s going in my recipes for future use!

  65. I want to try your enchiladas! They look delicious. I have an ancient slow cooker that I use a lot, mostly for beef roast and chicken taco soup. It’s a lifesaver for a working mom.

    Reply

  102. Oh my…which one is my fav!!!? I have made several of your recipes. The chicken tortilla soup is really good. Oh, and the Dr. Pepper roast is scrumptious too. I made the soup some time ago on a really cold day, and had dinner ready when The Man walked in the door. He absolutely attacked the soup. Very good. Thanks for sharing all your yummy recipes.

  111. I’d love to try the chops – I’ve cooked ONCE in a slow cooker and it was like boiled meat – I need help!

    Reply

  112. Hi… I’ve been subscribed to your blog via email for quite some time and have so enjoyed many of your recipes. I think the Deviled Egg Chef Salad is my favorite among the ones I have so far. Been following you on pinterest and especially enjoy how well catagorized your boards are. Very easy to browse what I am looking for. My most recent pin there is probably the Hard Cooked Eggs in the Oven. Can’t wait to see how well that idea works at altitude!

    Reply

  115. I have shared your Balsamic Roast recipe with my friends. Everyone that has made it has been wild over this recipe! It definitely is a keeper. I follow you by email.

    Reply

  117. I’ve just rediscovered my slow cooker…I’ve even been to a few “crock pot” parties lately and taken dessert! I’m all about oatmeal, so can’t wait to try the slow cooker oatmeal on your site. I’ve subscribed and pinned, too!

  129. My “new” favorite is your cheddar biscuits, we are in love with these. I pinned the cheddar biscuits on my Pinterest page. I have been following you on Pinterest, I can’t believe I hadn’t “liked” you on FB (I now “love” you on FB), I’ve been watching your tweets for a while now. I’ve been enjoying your email updates for a while now and and plan to keep trying your recipes. Love all I have tried.

  144. Oh I wish I had this crock pot this weekend. I’m giving my mom an 80th BD party for all my family. Would love to make those BBQ pork chops.

    Reply

  145. Ooh, definitely a toss-up. I saw slow-cooker grits and thought ‘man, the convenience!’ but then when I was pinning I saw slow-cooker dulce de leche and thought ‘man, how flipping great would that be’?

    So basically I’m just going to try a lot of recipes, nbd.

  167. Love your Balsamic Roast Beef slow cooker recipe! We’ve made it twice so far and have shared the recipe with many. It’s just as you promised, super easy and yummy with enough left overs to eat a solid meal the next day.
    I add more broth and an onion to the cooker so I can make a healthy quantity of gravy to put on mashed potatoes. Yum!

  170. I follow you on e-mail and print off the recipes. I like the balsamic roast and veg soup. Love the smells from a crockpot when you open the door in the evening. Love your recipes.

  173. Those Slow Cooker BBQ Pork Chops got me! I can’t wait to try them. Thanks for the chance at winning that beautiful slow cooker~

    Reply

  177. I subscribe via email and like getting your emails that include lots of recipes to explore. All of the slow cooker recipes look delicious but if I had to pick one to try it would be the grits. As a southern girl, I love grits and it would be great to wake up to a slow cooker filled with one of my favorite comfort foods.

    Reply

  181. We love the chicken enchiladas and there are a slew of recipes I have marked to try. The roast beef with espresso and siracha is up next! Can’t wiat to try it. Thanks for offering the chance to win a slow cooker.

  203. I’d LOVE to try your Slow Cooker BBQ Pork Chops. Pork Chops are such a family favorite. It’s a weekly staple! Making in a Slow Cooker would save so much time and save me from overcooking it. Yikes.

  283. I get your emails, and follow you on Pinterest & Facebook!

    I love “Slow Cooker Pumpkin Pie/Pudding”

    1 15-ounce can mashed pumpkin
    1 12-ounce can evaporated milk (or regular/rice/soy milk)
    3/4 cup sugar
    1/2 cup biscuit/baking mix OR 1/2 cup flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt mixed
    2 eggs, beaten
    2 Tablespoons butter, melted
    2-1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice OR the equivalent of cinnamon, ginger, and allspice
    2 teaspoons vanilla
    Whipped cream/topping (optional)

    Lightly oil inside of slow cooker. Combine all the ingredients except whipped topping in a large bowl. Transfer to slow cooker. Cook on high for 3 to 4 hours, or until pudding is somewhat set and temperature hits 160 degrees. Serve with whipped topping sprinkled with cinnamon.

    I also found that substituting Persimmon Pulp for the Mashed Pumpkin
    and only using 1 tsp. of cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp nutmeg you have a delicious and quick
    Slow-Cooker Persimmon Pudding
