Crock Pot Roasted Chicken
A few weeks ago I came across a recipe for a whole chicken cooked in the crock pot. I thought it was crazy but then decided to try it. It's AMAZING!!!
4-5 pound whole chicken
2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 stick butter
2 teaspoons minced garlic
salt
pepper
season the chicken inside and out with salt, pepper, paprika and garlic
place in crock pot; add the chicken broth and place pads of butter all over chicken.
cook on high for 1 hour, then reduce heat to low and cook for 7 hours. The chicken will literally fall apart.
Enjoy!!

In a 9in spring form pan press the crust into the pan; make sure the sides are covered
To make the filling (make sure all ingredients are at room temperature). Mix the cream cheese together on low until light and fluffy

Philly Cheesesteaks
A few years back I discovered the philly meat at the grocery store and had to try to it. It's now one of Kyle's favorites. Here is a recipe for delicious sandwiches.
steak-eze philly meat
hoagie rolls
green peppers; sliced
onion; sliced
provolone cheese (or any kind you want to use)
heat olive oil in a skillet on medium heat
saute the vegetables until tender; set aside
cook 2-3 pieces of the meat until cooked at the way through
add the vegetables to the meat
add the cheese and cook until melted
place the meat into a hoagie roll; I buttered the rolls and lightly toasted them. Enjoy!!
