About a year ago, my husband and I took an amazing trip out west to the Four Corners area. During our stay in Ouray, Colorado we ate at a German restaurant, and it was the best German food I had ever had. Working as a freelancer, the time I can set aside for cooking (and blogging) has been a bit unpredictable. As a solution, I've been trying to plan one or two slow cooker meals a week.
Not only does this hearty meal bring the flavors of Oktoberfest into your home; it cooks itself while you go about your business, and it contains fairly healthy and economical ingredients, with not a cream-of can in sight!
(Just ignore my work stuff in the background of that shot.) :)
Try serving it with an apple and cheddar salad for a complete meal!
