Easy Weekend Crockpot Cooking-Potato Soup

February 8, 2015 • Recipes, Weekend Cooking

Soup Ingredients

We all know I love a good crockpot recipe.  While you COULD make this on the stove, I love being able to put it in and walk away.  This soup was inspired by a soup my husband used to love at a restaurant .  While I don't know what was in that soup, I'm SURE it was calorie laden.  This version is lighter and even has vegetables in it...shhh, don't tell the kids! Here's what's inside: 4 ...

There are lots of overnight oats recipes out there.  I've been Pinning them for a while.  (And putting off making one.)  I finally decided that I would make my own version of overnight oats with all of MY favorite things.  That being said, this recipe is customizable and easy to change every time you make it.

Pesto Steps
