This is an "PRIVATE" meetup group! :) This Meetup is exclusively for friends that we have already met, and trust. There is still an opportunity to meet new friends (since it's a combination of the Meetup groups we are already active in). We can feel more comfortable posting private locations, such as our home, for some planned activities.

This meet up is for all those busy folks who like to eat healthy and save money but who also work full time and don't have time to cook every night! Using slow cookers / crock pots, is a fabulous way to get that dinner cooking while we are working. Sometimes those recipes just make too much food! And sometimes we just need new ideas! This group
