    Ground Beef Dip Recipe for the Slow Cooker

    This is a very good recipe. My grown kids love spicy sauces. I do not. However, I have to come up with a dip for our Christmas dinner and I think this will hit or "burn" the spot. My one son is always cooking with very spicy chilies. This will put a smile on his taste buds.

    liners

    Hmm. I had not heard there are liners made nor available for use with crockpots. You just gave me a reason to go shopping. Ha Ha. Crockpots have come a long way. I remember my first humble looking crockpot. I do not think they even make one that resembles that old thing.

    Favorite Restaurant!

    I enjoy a good Spanish Meal. There is a Colombian restaurant called "Oh Que Bueno." Their food is very tasty. Their portions are very generous, and the variety in the menu is wide. I have enjoyed a few of their dishes. I can never finish the plate.

    Ham with Teriyaki Sauce

    Hmm. What I think is that if you add some sugar, it will be like chicken teriyaki except it will be ham. I would add the pineapples to it for additional flavor. Actually, it is starting to sound good. yum.

    Remember your first time?
