NEW CROCK POT RECIPE!!!

CROCK POT LENTIL CHILI

 

 

So I made this crockpot meal last night for my husband. I was going to my parents for the night and so I wanted to have something he could come home to, eat, and not have to worry about finding and cooking something. Because trust me that is more of a hassle then anything else!! He doesn't know where anything is in the kitchen! He was to only have 1 bowl, or 1 and 1/2 max. Well I got a call later in the evening, that he ate the ENTIRE crockpot. Yes you read that right. The ENTIRE thing! It was to be my dinner tonight. Oh well. I can definitely say it was HUSBAND APROVED!!!
