In this dad’s house 9 times out of 10 meat is the main ingredient in our dinners.  As much as my mother would like to see me trick my boys into thinking Tofu is chicken there is no way my boys and I could ever stop being carnivores.  And, ever since a very cute, blond waitress at Chili’s convinced my boys to try their rib tips I have been searching for a crock pot recipe based around ribs my boys would love.  This Chinese Rib recipe fits the bill perfectly.  Two hours in the crock pot and dinner is served.

Today's recipe is a delicious Asian flavored chicken stew this single dad and his boys tear into.  The stew comes out of the crockpot looking a little funny and somewhat greenish, however it tastes great.  Once your kids get over the 'it looks like boogers' jokes and actually taste this dish they will love it.  You have the rDad guarantee! 

Here's a recipe that's a new one for this single dad, but it sounds great.  Thank you to Claudia for submitting her amazing Firefighter Mac n' Cheese Hotdog Casserole recipe.  I am sure my boys will love this one....especially when I tell them the recipe comes straight out of a Firefighter/EMT House.  If this meal can satisfy a Firehouse full of hungry Firefighters I am sure it will take care of my three boys hunger pains.  Thanks Claudia!!

I know what you are thinking...."There is no way Lasagna can be cooked in a crock pot and still turn out."  This single dad thought so as well until I tried this dish and now I am a believer.  My kids call this dish red puke goulash, but they still eat it up (boys are gross, what can I say).  The prep time is longer than my usual posts and the steps are a little more involved, but this Lasagna dish is well worth the trouble.  Try this dish once and you will never make Lasagna in the oven again.
