Our family loves corn on the cob, but was bored one day with the “normal” preparation. I decided to do something different and came up with this using my Rival Crock Pot. It turned put so good we gave it our “pearl necklace” award, which is a family term for REALLY good food!

¾ cup butter softened
4-5 cloves of garlic
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley
¼ tsp salt
1 tbsp black pepper
4-5 ears of corn, husked and rinsed


Mix butter, garlic, parsley, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
Place an ear of corn on a piece of foil, lather corn with mixture and roll up in foil. Repeat for each additional ear of corn. Place corn in crock-pot and add enough water to cover ¼ of each piece of corn. Cover, and cook on high 2 to 2 ½ hours.

When my husband is good enough to tell me in advance when company is coming over, this is always an option. I think most of the regular guests have asked for the recipe.

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 can (10 ¾) cream of chicken soup
1-cup milk
1 envelope garlic and herb pasta sauce mix
1 tsp dried thyme
1tsp dried parsley flakes
1 pack hot cooked fettuccine noodles

Put chicken in slow cooker. In separate bowl mix the soup, milk, sauce mix, thyme and parsley; pour over the chicken. Cover and cook on low 4-5 hours. Serve over the noodles.
