If you have one of the newfangled Crock-Pots with a "keep warm" setting, you can do pretty much any hot dip. We like one with browned ground beef, melted Velveeta cheese and Rotel tomatoes, served with Fritos. Or crab mornay--basically crab meat, cream, butter, green onions and a little sherry; good with melba toasts. Let me know if you want a recipe.
Well, that's what I'm hoping to do... but at the same time, I'd like to have suggestions for people like me who never make anything other than spaghetti in their crock pot [img]smile.gif[/img]
It might be easier to ask the parents to bring their crockpot fav instead of asking them to bring someone else's or maybe ask the teachers for their favs and ask the parents to make those. Our staff does a monthly food thing and for 3 months they did crockpot style things and I had never heard or thought of most of the stuff.
The irony of commitment is that it’s deeply liberating-in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life. --Anne Morris
Anybody have any ideas for 'crock pot' appetizers? BBQ meatballs and BBQ little smokies are all I know... I was thinking that might be an easy contribution for some parents to make during teacher appreciation week.
