This has to be one of husband’s all time favorite dinners. It is a nice hearty supper! Not to mention it can be left in the slow cooker all day and ready for when you get home from work! Who doesn’t like that? This recipe is my mother in laws and she has been making it for years so it’s tried and true! Plus another bonus is there are only 5 ingredients!!
