Imagine a quiet and calm dinner where your entire meal comes together quickly without a fuss! It’s possible with the slow cooker. What could be easier than preparing a few simple ingredients, adding them to the slow cooker, and then walking away while dinner and even dessert practically cook themselves? Our recipe for Apple Cinnamon Bread Pudding is delicious and nutritious, and it is sure to keep you and your family warm and well-nourished during the cold days of winter.
To keep your family healthy and happy this winter, try our slightly sweet and naturally delicious apple dessert. It comes together quickly with cinnamon swirl bread (look for whole grain at your supermarket), milk, eggs, apples, and raisins and cooks up in a few short hours in the slow cooker. Our kids love this treat served warm right out of the slow cooker with a few spoonfuls of plain or vanilla Greek yogurt on top.
Optional Toppings:
Plain or vanilla yogurt

(Or freeze the leftovers in zippered bags for later.)

Place half a cup of cooked brown rice in a bowl and top with the pulled chicken and your choice of toppings.
Warm a stack of soft corn tortillas and then top each with the pulled chicken and your choice of toppings. You’ll need one to three tortillas per person.
Use the outer leaves of iceberg or Bibb lettuce to create cute “cups,” and then fill them with pulled chicken and your choice of toppings. You’ll need one to three lettuce “cups” per person.
