ReplyDeleteI hope you had a wonderful NYE, Ramona! This dish looks fabulous to start the new year! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI am on a mission to get new, good crock pot meals. This just got added to the list. I hope you had a great NYE!
ReplyDeleteHappy New year Ramona!!!! Looks like you dished up a rich dish for New years as well! Don't you just love those tradition! Now if they really worked, we'd all be rich! Love the greens and peas with that delicious roast! Looking forward to having fun with you in 2013!
ReplyDeleteThese sound so good. Liked you on Facebook. Drop by my kitchen for visit. Love your recipes.
ReplyDeleteSounds amazing, when do you throw in the cinnamon stick? If I don't have the cinnamon stick can powder be used as an alternative or should I just omit it?
ReplyDeleteYou can put the cinnamon stick with all the other ingredients into the slow cooker. If you want to use powder, use an 1/8 tsp and bloom it with the other spices. If you prefer, omit it all together. Hope you enjoy. :)
DeleteTHANK YOU!!!!!!!! MAKING THIS TOMORROW
DeleteCan I use frozen collards? Would be a lot easier for me! But would they be overdone? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSure, you can try frozen. Maybe add it half way through the cooking process so not to overcook it.
DeleteI made this for New Year's Day- our house smelled so good! The meal was better than some we have had in restaurants!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you enjoyed it!! Happy New Year!! :)
