I sure do appreciate a slow cooker, don’t you? Just add your ingredients, set it, and come back later to a meal ready for the family!

I have two slow cookers, one large and one small, that I use all year round but when fall weather starts to appear, they get used even more than ever. I cook all kinds of things in my slow cookers. If it can be cooked low and slow, it usually goes in a slow cooker.
Cooler weather ushers in the season of soups, stews, and other recipes that benefit from the long, slow cooking provided in a slow cooker. They’re definitely one of the kitchen appliances that I wouldn’t want to do without.
I came up with this delicious family-friendly recipe for Slow Cooker Cheesy Potatoes and Ham a while back. This one is guaranteed to be a hit with everyone at the table. I’ve even included a great use for the leftovers, too, at the end of this post.
How to Make Slow Cooker Cheesy Potatoes and Ham

If I had to pick a side dish that I like best, it would probably be potatoes in some form or other. They’re just so versatile! And when I’m in a hurry, I have no problem taking some help from pre-packaged, pre-prepped potatoes. They’re a really good product and one that I use often.

Layer half the potatoes, mushrooms, and ham in slow cooker. Then add a second layer of potatoes, mushrooms, and ham.

In a large bowl, combine all the remaining ingredients. Stir until combined.

Then pour the mixture over the layered ingredients in your slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 2 1/2 hours or until the potatoes are tender. After 2 1/2 hours, turn the cooker to low and continue cooking for 1 additional hour. Makes 8-10 servings.

This recipe makes an awful lot for just the two of us. There are always leftovers and one of our favorite ways to enjoy them is reheated with an over-easy egg on top for breakfast! Enjoy!

I’m just really getting into utilizing the crockpot I’ve owned for a while. I LOVE CROCKPOTTING! Makes life so much simplier. Haven’t tried out a dessert in it yet, so I think peach cobbler is next on my list.
Ihave a great slow cooker chili recipe I would love to try!
I would be thrilled to have a crockpot made in 2015. I am a retired senior living alone and don’t like to eat leftovers. My crockpot with non-remove able pot is about 25 years old, and it will not die. I like to make chile, soups, stews and beans in my pot then bag them in one serving size. I will lay them out flat on a cookie sheet and freeze them flat. Make storage really easy in the freezer.
I would love to make stew or chili.
I would make beef stew.
