The slow cooker is a true blessing when it comes to comforting and easily accessible comfort food. It serves as the perfect tool for preparing a variety of nostalgic recipes that bring back childhood memories. While this particular recipe wasn’t part of my upbringing, my time as a transplant in the southern region of North Carolina has certainly influenced my culinary preferences.
Among the dishes I’ve come to appreciate is the classic Southern delicacy of scalloped potatoes with ham. This delightful recipe effortlessly adapts to the slow cooker, making it a breeze to assemble. After a long day, all you need to do is prepare a side of veggies or a refreshing salad to complete your dinner.
Upon preparing this dish, the aroma that filled the kitchen reminded my teenage daughters of the potlucks held at the church on lazy Sunday afternoons. For those unfamiliar, let me assure you that their remark was meant as a sincere compliment. The church potluck, which takes place on the first Sunday of every month following the service, offers an unparalleled collection of mouthwatering foods. Allow me to guide you in creating a scrumptious dinner tonight.
