i cook alot but this is a first for me. this meal was very tasty. the only thing i noticed the meat shrunk to half its size. maybe i kept it in the crock pot to long. other than that i would definitely make this meal again.

Excellent flavor. I didn't have any carrots and only had green peppers, but it was wonderful just the same!
