Are you looking for a new cookbook? Gooseberry Patch’s newย Fresh and Easy Family Mealsย is chock full of great new recipes that are easy to prepare and delicious to eat!

Cris here. My friends atย Gooseberry Patch recently sent me a copy of their new cookbookย Fresh and Easy Family Meals. And we –of course– just love it so we want to give one to one lucky reader AND ANOTHER to one lucky YouTube subscriber.

While Gooseberry Patch’sย ย Fresh and Easy Family Meals. is NOT a slow cooker cookbook we found that many of their recipes (especially the soups) were easy to convert to crock pot recipes and it was also FULL of great easy recipes that compliment our other crock pot dishes very well. Here is a little taste of a few recipes from the cookbook we tried..
Crock Pot Tuscan Bean Soup– This soup had an amazing flavor and was easily adaptable to our crock pot! It is on our short list for the next time company comes over.
Crock Pot Tex-Mex Salsa Soup– is a delightful twist on your traditional salsa soup! I love when I find a new way to play off of flavors I know my family will devour!
Crock Pot Beefed Up Tacos– Is a crock pot adaptation of one of the skillet recipes in the cookbook. We LOVED how this recipe let us stretch our ground beef to feed more folks.
Easy Salsa Recipeย is not a crock pot recipe but we LOVED this dish! You won’t believe just how easy it is to make this impressive homemade salsa!

All of them as Every recipe you post is out of this world!! The Stuffed Pepper Soup is one of our favorites and we make it on a regular basis!! Thanks for the opportunity.

Oh my goodness it’s so hard to choose!!! They all look so delicious! I would have to say that it’s a total tie between the Tuscan Bean Soup & the Tex-Mex Taco Soup because not only is it freezing in my office so soup sounds so warm and comforting, but I think I have all of the stuff to make both of them in my house right now ๐
