Korean Ribs and Daikon

        Here in Minnesota we have had a week of temperatures that were well below 0 . In some parts of Minnesota it is has been -61 including the windchill. On one day the temperature in Minneapolis was colder than in Antarctica. My brother and I had both Monday and Tuesday off from school. Monday school was cancelled statewide. This was our 17th day of Winter Break.
       On the coldest day of the year my mom and I went straight to the cookbooks to find a hearty dish to make. I recently got a cookbook that had some incredible recipes. That cookbook was the I Love My Slow Cooker by Beverly LeBlanc. With the temperatures WELL below zero this cookbook had to have something inside that would warm our bones. We found the perfect dish -  the Korean Ribs and Daikon served over Coconut Rice and sprinkled with Pickled Bean Sprouts.
      This meal was so easy to make and prepare. All my mom and I had to do was put the ingredients in the pot and push the high cook button and set the timer to 5 hours. After only 2 hours the house was starting to fill with heavenly aroma's.
I think this is the beginning of many dinners made using the slow cooker.
