I know I know, It's not winter. But I had some chipolata sausages in my freezer and it was a Sunday. So what it was a Sunday? Well, Sunday I traditionally break out the crock pot because we're usually out all day and it's nice to come home and just have to serve up a meal and not cook. We all really enjoyed it and it was very filling and I made so much I've now got three "heat-em-up" meals in the freezer for those days when I really can't be assed. Again sorry for the useless photo... needcamera.needcamera.
