What are non-crock pot recipes doing on your site? i.e 33 ham leftovers
Hi Patricia- Like I said in the post, these recipes are on the site because “while all these recipes are not crock pot recipes, I assure you, in this house the ham itself did its time in the slow cooker.” Also– several of those ham leftover dishes are indeed slow cooker recipes.
Additionally, while we want this site to be a resource for those that want to use it, if we see a recipe we want to share on our site– crock pot or not– we will share it. There are literally HUNDREDS of slow cooker recipes on this site for those that do not want anything but crock pot recipes.
Hope that clears up any confusion.
What a great roundup of ham recipes. Ham is not one of my favorites, but this post might change my mind! Pinned for future meals. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much Mary! That is very sweet of you!
