Living in gorgeous Maine, most people associate this state’s food with Lobster Rolls, Blueberry Cobbler and Chowder, or as the locals pronounce it, Chowdah! Since it is spring and lobsters and blueberries aren’t as plentiful, but boy- oh- boy, bacon, potatoes and corn are, I created an easy and so delicious Corn and Bacon Chowder.

Using the Slow Cooker is a fantastic idea when you have a package of chops and a bowl of veggies. Pork chops come out so tender and fall apart. They are full of so much flavor.

Now that the holidays are over and we can get back to our healthy groove, readers are requesting Lo Carb recipes!
Ham, Cheese, Veggies and egg beautifully whipped up to be a Lo Carb, guilt free muffin.
I used my Pampered Chef Muffin pan, no need to spray this non-stick pan. I filled each cup with sauteed veggies, ham and poured egg mixture to the top, sprinkled with cheese.
The muffins rise while in the oven, like a souffle, but then deflate after cooling down.
Serve warm. Refrigerate left overs, heat for 1 minute in microwave for a quick breakfast.
Serves 6.
It has been a really warm summer, I am not complaining, I love it, but I just don’t want to put my oven on for a couple hours. That’s where my Crock Pot comes in to the story. I think it’s a magical thing indeed, just set it and forget it! Voila your family thinks you are a magician. Chicken Cacciatore is a fabulous meal for a family or a crowd, I love to add lots of veggies and serve it over pasta or egg noodles, it’s even better the day after. All of the flavors have been co-mingling all night, wonderful!
