I’m loving my crockpot as I’m settling into the house where Squish will be born (Squish is the nickname we’ve chosen for our child in utero). Even after three weeks in we are not completely settled, and the crockpot has been a godsend. One pot meals, no fuss, little prep – so handy!
This Curry Chicken is on the list for this week; it will provide an easy and tasty meal this week. Give it a go when you are short on time and don’t want to think about dinner at the end of the day; a little prep in the morning goes a long way!
