A New Year and new healthier living, I will at least try my very best! I have been inspired by the girls at Make Mine Pink to kick myself in the right direction. Below is a recipe I found on halfmysize.com for Beef Stroganoff made in the Crockpot. Easy picy to make and taste really, really good! Thank goodness for the Crockpot, thanks to it we eat home cooked food more or less every day and pretty healthy too!!
Have a great healthy week!

For my Swedish friends, a Crockpot is the best kitchen gadget ever. It’s a electrical pot with a ceramic insert. You just add whatever you are cooking and let it cook away for 4-10 hours deepening what you are cooking, no need to be home or stirring etc, it’s great!!
