For this week’s What I Ate Wednesday, my recipe is perfect for the theme of the month: Love Your Veggies! I’m all about making crock pot meals for the week and I tend to just make them up based on what I already have. Today’s crock pot meal turned into kind of a chili/stew type dish. I had intended a soup but I’m kind of glad how it worked out!
If you’re new to What I Ate Wednesday, head over to Peas and Crayons to see what it’s all about, and the other bloggers who are participating.
It definitely isn’t the prettiest dish I’ve ever made, but it smelled great (the smell reminds me of broccoli cheddar soup…) and hopefully no one will make fun of me at work… haha.
