Another year and another awesome slow cooker recipe. 
 
I have many times professed my love for slow cookers and crockpots. They routinely save my family from weeknight take out and we get to come home to a hot and ready meal. In the past I have heard the complaint of slow cookers drying out food and I think it is important to note that not all slow cooker recipes can sit and cook for 10 hours. I have a few great roast recipes that can take that amount of time, but I find many need 6-8 hours on low to be perfect.
 
This recipe for Slow Cooker Chicken Curry cooks perfectly in about 6 hours and makes a wonderful weeknight meal. When I saw the recipe it was a must try for me: easy to put together and easy to get on the table.  This recipe calls for cream cheese at the end to create a creamy curry and I followed their recommendation, but am intrigued on the idea of using a can of coconut milk next time! Yum! I opted to use a spicy salsa, but the nice thing about this recipe is you have a lot of control over the heat level depending on who is sharing the meal with you.
