I'm a big fan of using the slow cooker on the weekend to cook a couple of dishes that last the week (or can go into the freezer). And I love burrito bowls, because you can make all of the components ahead of time and then just assemble during the week. Thanks for linking to one of my recipes, too.
Lydia, for some reason I was so much better at doing than when I had to go off to work all week than I am now, but it's a habit I'm trying to get back!
Hi, i dont see any measurements fir this dish? Can someone help me here???
We feature the recipes here; you have to click the link above (where it says “Get the complete recipe” to get the actual recipe. We just moved this site to WordPress and the formatting is messed up on some posts, so that link was crowded with the next line, maybe that’s why you didn’t see it. Just fixed that, hope you enjoy the recipe.
