 I told myself I wasn't going to blog tonight.... but being the crazed workaholic blogger that I am, I just had to share my potato post tonight and not tomorrow hehehe ;-) Anyway..... This baked potato trick goes back to my kiddy days.... my mom was not a cook at all.... unless you count her spaghetti and store bought sauce cooking, so this was one of her tricks! She usually would microwave potatoes -_- but on the rare occasion she had to cook a bunch at the same time....she would throw them in the crock pot ;-) If you are a potato connoisseur like myself... no these potatoes don't taste as fantastic as a baked potato in the oven.... the skin doesn't get all crispy, but they are hell of a lot better than a microwave potato lol.... this is the perfect hack for those crazy busy days! Just throw some potatoes in before you go run all your errands and when you get back all you have to do is chef up a main dish!  All you need is a crockpot, foil & potatoes  Just poke a few holes in the potatoes with a fork  wrap in foil  cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours  Top with your favorites & enjoy ❤

I have never made a baked potato in my crock pot before, but that sounds like an awesome way to make them! 11/22/2014 01:35:46 am
This is a pretty smart way to cook taters when I don't want to fire up the oven, or the oven is in use. Pinned! 11/22/2014 02:21:57 am
DUDE!! I HATE COOKING POTATOES! This is amazing!! I would cook everything in my crockpot if I could and now I'm one step closer LOL Do this in the morning, fry up some steak real quick with some raw veggies and bam, easiest dinner ever. Thank you, thank you, thank you, I had no idea I could do this! 11/22/2014 02:30:06 am
What a great idea. We will have to try this. I love easy stuff that I do not have to watch when I have my four 4-year old children running around! Thank you. 11/22/2014 02:33:37 am
When baked/cooked right - potatoes are just the yummiest thing!

Those potatoes look awesome! Seems pretty simple enough to cook them in the crockpot, I'll have to try that this week. 11/24/2014 01:51:14 pm
I never thought about cooking baked potatoes in the crock pot! That is awesome! Especially for me,,,I always end up focusing on the "meat" portion of a meal, forget about the sides, and end up scrambling at the end. I can put the potatoes in the crock pot before begin! 11/24/2014 02:24:26 pm
Everybody thinks I am weird because I am not a fan of potatoes BUT I do like htem from time to time especially when they are loaded like these. They look good. 11/24/2014 02:30:47 pm
