Meatless Monday: Easy Crock Pot Penne Pasta

Our entire family loves pasta so I am always looking for a new way to serve it to them. For years I have made crock pot lasagna for them but I have found it takes a bit more time because you have to season and brown your meat first. 

Today I decided to whip up a dish for Meatless Monday and came up with an easy crock pot penne pasta dish. It was originally supposed to be crock pot ziti however the grocery store was out of ziti so we went with penne instead.

To create this dish, you will want to first line your crock pot with a disposable liner because they make clean up quick!

Crock-Pot Gyros & Homemade Tzatziki Sauce {Recipe}

I think I mentioned in the past that I LOVE Greek food.  Greek salads, gyros, baklava, pastitsio, moussaka….basically all Greek food. There is just something about it that makes my mouth water.  

If I could eat one Greek dish everyday, it would be gyros.  They are soooooo good!

Over the weekend, Alex made Crock-Pot Gyros with homemade Tzatziki sauce and they were absolutely delicious!

Not only were these gyros and tzatziki sauce yummy, they were both super easy to make!

Crock-Pot Honey BBQ Chicken

We got a new crock-pot for Christmas from my in-laws…..an 8 quart crock-pot!!  Having a crock that big makes cooking for a family of 7 so much easier.  We used it last week to make soup and last night we used it to make Crock-Pot Honey BBQ Chicken that was absolutely delcious and easy to make!

I love anything that can be cooked in the crock-pot and I love it even more when it can be done using 6 ingredients or less.
