What to say about this recipe? There is only one thing I can say... AMAZING!!! This was one of the best crock pot recipes I have made and eaten in awhile. It was so good and flavorful, I could not stop eating it and to top it off, the leftovers were just as good as the day I made it. Not to mention it is super easy to make.
The only downside to this recipe is the nutritional information, however it is so good that I am willing to over look the nutritional information to have this dish every once in a while. It does have spinach in it, so there is something healthy about it.
