It's time to Rock the Crock. Summer is well under way and that means warmer weather (actually, our summer here has been slightly cooler than our spring was - thank goodness). And warmer weather means that no one wants to turn on the oven. Enter the beloved slow cooker.

Here are two fantastically easy and delicious slow cooker recipies, compliments of A Year of Slow Cooking.

1. Rotisserie-Style Chicken. I never would have thought to cook a whole chicken in a slow cooker, but it works; and it's delicious; and it's a great way to produce left-over cooked chicken to use in other recipies. Oh, and use the drippings to make an amazing gravy.
   



2. Pesto Spinach Lasagna. This one is also delicious and super easy. You don't have to pre-cook the noodles so it takes no time at all to throw everything together in the pot. I like to throw in extra vegetables like mushrooms or zuccini.
