Slow Cooker Chorizo Minestrone Soup
This chorizo minestrone soup is so full of flavour you’ll be coming back for seconds. I have used D’Orsogna Mild Spanish Chorizo Salami to add a bucket load of flavour to what is normally a rather plain soup. As the chorizo cooks it unleashes all of its full flavour into the soup making for one […]
Lamb Chop and Vegetable Tray Bake

Slow Cooker Beef and Sweet Potato Stew
