Slow Cooker Recommendations
This Crock Pot Southwest Breakfast Casserole was perfect for my 9 x13 casserole slow cooker made by Crock Pot. Of course, I love making all my casseroles in my casserole crock these days, so I guess that’s no big surprise! If you don’t have one, then you will want to use a 5-6 quart crock pot.
