With autumn just around the corner, I wanted to prepare for the colder months by sharing ways to serve your family (and yourself) with filling, comforting, and easy-to-make meals. So today, I am doing my first round-up post for slow cooker recipes! I sincerely hope you enjoy it!
When I first got my crockpot as a wedding gift, I knew that I absolutely needed one. (I mean who doesn’t right?!) But I really had no idea what to do with it or how to use it properly. It was just kind of a shiny new object that sat on my kitchen counter along with all of the other new gadgets I didn’t know how to use. But as a new wife, with a newfound hatred of making dinner from scratch each night (and then doing the dishes) I learned quickly how to use my slow cooker. And boy did I fall in love!
Being a homemaker doesn’t always mean you have to do things the old-fashioned way or to spend more time cleaning and cooking than with your family. Homemaking is a balance of both. Being able to give your family the time they need while still meeting their needs. With a crockpot, you can easily have the balance of the home-cooked, clean meals without the hassle and mess of a traditional way of cooking.
So if you are looking for a sanity saver (as I was), then I know you’re going to love these recipes!

Hello! I'm Amanda Elizabeth, creator of The Homemaker's Cottage. As a homemaker I have constantly felt the pull between old fashioned homemaking and the fast paced world we live in today. So I created The Homemaker's Cottage: a stress-free space between the old in the new, where there is no judgement and we can learn that homemaking can be relevant, easy and even enjoyable.
Join me on this journey to serve God, your family, and begin homemaking from where you are.
