Crock Pot Chronicles - Shani’s Red Beans & Rice

With my full-time school schedule and full-time work schedule, I try to find ways to continue to feed my family home cooked meals. A crockpot is a great way to do so. I will start my Crock Pot Chronicles and share them with you. I do not do a lot of crockpot cooking but when I do I will share.
