crock pot recipes

[Blindgreed1]

I never knew I didn't have to cook the meatballs before I add them to the crock pot. I make them frequently throughout football season.

I use my crock pot more than I do my range & just as soon as I start seeing big baskets of apples at the Amish market I'm going to try and make apple crisp in the crock.

Mamma Aducci (pronounced DOO-CHY) never cooked hers before adding them to the pot with her famous "gravy" so I don't either. It keeps those delicious flavors in the sauce where they belong. This is her recipe BTW (straight from South Philly), handed down by her mother and her mother's mother from the "old country" adapted for todays groceries and a crockpot because who has time these days for all that, preparation, stirring and lowering and raising of heat throughout the day?
