Here in New Orleans, we are all about food. Our seasons are named for the food and we are perfectly ok with that. However, as moms, we are busy. Between work, school, and kid activities it leaves little time to cook a healthy meal for our families. Throw in the craziness of Mardi Gras with parades almost nightly, and it's enough to make a mom her mind. If you're like me, you don't want to feed the kids anything but fast food during parade season. But what's a busy mom to do? That's why I put together this of New Orleans slow cooker recipes for you so you can have dinner ready before you head to the parades!
