This first selection from Wendy is perfect for my neck of the woods - winter is here full force and now I have some new recipes to try! My pick is this Slow Cooker Chicken Parmesan Soup.

Confession - I'm actually really bad at using my slow cooker - it kind of sits and collects dust because I'm not sure what to make. So this month's recipe challenge got me thinking, I really need to use it more. I love that I can just put in the ingredients, walk away and come back to a meal that is done! How slick is that? Perfect for those busy times in our lives.
We absolutely loved this soup - it had great flavor and really stuck to our ribs. Take that old man winter!
