Well the weather sure did change overnight here! We had some beautiful weather over the weekend. Was able to get things put away for winter. Which I am not ready for.
We are in desperate need of rain. It is so dry!
With the temps now getting colder finally all of these slow cooker recipes will definitely be welcomed.

Today's recipe is Chicken Bacon Ranch Pasta. I have included two different variations to try.

Enjoy!

How many of you have made candied nuts? I made some yesterday to put on my charcuterie board. I happened to see a package of walnuts while shopping at our local store, Holly's Last Stand. I love stopping there for fresh produce and cheese (Which I also came home with along with some squash) .
Anywho, with a few ingredients and about 10 minutes later, I had the tastiest candied walnuts.
Our Pop and Stir made it so easy to make these!
