Creole Crock Pot

Our cooking club met again this week and I have already enjoyed half of the meals! Our menu included: creole crock pot shrimp & chicken, chicken parm meatloaf, veggie lasagna, Stromboli and chicken fajitas.  The very first thing I made was creole crock pot shrimp, from Michelle.  It was so yummy!!  I can't wait to share the rest of the recipes with you, but first here is a super easy crock pot wonder!
