The family and I have been on the road so much lately, that my poor blog as felt the pain. So sorry for the lack of posts!! I honestly just haven't been in town to cook anything yummy. I have let restaurants do the cooking lately. Oops! Today I have for you an easy slow cooker recipe that I love! I love anything with Asian flavors. Add in the slow cooker and I am a happy camper.
What is great about this recipe, I usually have all of the ingredients on hand so I can through it together on a Sunday afternoon and it is ready in time for dinner.
I like to serve this dish with brown rice and my sautéed asian vegetables. I have also shared that recipe with you below. I start my veggie recipe when the slows cooker has about 25 minutes left.

Okay, so what do you say we get to cooking?
