Chicken Balsamic Slow Cooker Recipe

Written by Published on Updated on November 30, 2022 in Uncategorized

I finally got the opportunity to purchase a Slow Cooker.  They were on sale 1/2 price so I was able to afford one, and try it out for the first time when I returned with a wonderful recipe a fellow blogger from whatsfordinnermoms.com posted a while back.  I remembered how handy it was back in the days when my mom used it, she would prepare all the ingredients toss them into the cooker and off she went to work.

So, I thought why not try out a cooker with another delicious recipe, which a friend told me about…if you love Chicken and Balsamic vinegar then  you will absolutely adore this recipe. It turned out delicious.  🙂

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
