After a particularly cold winter here in Chicago, we recently went on a great trip to Navarre, Florida. In February. The weather wasn’t super warm there in north Florida, but it sure was a lot better than here in Chicago!!! We love to cook, and we cooked dinner every night of our trip except one (when in Florida you have to eat seafood just once!). We keep our meals simple yet healthy and very tasty!! I love my crock pot, and used it on the days we were travelling. However, I am VERY picky about the food that comes out of my crock pot – I have no desire to eat mushy, squishy meat that’s been slow-cooking for 10 hours and falls apart when you touch it with your fork. My MAN likes to work his meat too! So there aren’t many crock pot recipes that I love. Which means the ones that I’m posting here have passed the Carol test – and that’s NOT an easy thing to do! Only 3 of the 7 recipes are from the crock pot – the rest were cooked on my stovetop in the RV. We LOVE to grill outside, but it was just too darn cold this time of year to do that.
So, without further ado, here are 7 great meals you can cook in your RV. I will post one recipe, complete with pictures, each time I post, and then wrap it all up at the end with links to each recipe right here on this post, so that they are all in one neat, tidy little place. ENJOY!!

On the technical side, our Monaco Motorhome has a power management system that uses the engine’s alternator to keep the house batteries charged. Also standard is a 2000 watt inverter that creates 110v AC power from the batteries. So our crock pot works just fine while rolling down the road, without running our generator.
It is absolutely the best to pull into a campground after a long day on the road and have dinner simply ready.
No wait, that is second best.
BEST is cruising down the highway smelling me dinner cooking!
