One of my favorite things about Easter is the succulent lamb roast I always make. Leg of lamb is so rich and luscious on its own that you hardly have to do anything with it. But a little bit of rosemary and garlic makes it even better. Here's a roast leg of lamb recipe that's a snap to prepare and will leave you with plenty of time for egg hunts and everything else you love doing on Easter.

When you buy your lamb, just make sure the aitchbone is removed (it usually is). The butcher can do this for you. Or -- just buy a boneless cut and roast for about 30 minutes to an hour less. And remember, it's important to take your lamb out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before roasting.

Some guy with a beard at a basketball game has suddenly shot to fame -- and for the worst reason, too. He's been dubbed "Ice Cream Guy" because he was captured on camera refusing to let his girlfriend take a bite from his ice cream cone! Can you believe this shit?

So there they are at the game. He's enjoying his mint chocolate chip cone. She tries to get a tiny nibble with her spoon. (SPOON, she's even using a spoon, ya big jerk!) And he moves the damn cone away from her. Doesn't he know? Love means never having to buy a whole ice cream cone of your own when all you want is a bite! That's half the reason why you get a boyfriend in the first place. Jeebus, man.

It never occurred to me until I started looking for meat loaf recipes, but you can totally cook meat loaf in your crock pot! Of course -- why didn't I think of that? It makes perfect sense. Here's a recipe for what's called Melt-in-Your-Mouth Meat Loaf. That sounds promising, doesn't it? It's super simple to prepare, too. It's one of those life-simplifying meals that cooks itself while you get everything else in your busy life done. Or while sledding! If it's still winter where you are, this is a great snow day dinner.

There's nothing that warms your body and soul better than a hot bowl of soup on a chilly evening, especially when you don't have to put a ton of effort into making it. And when it comes to cutting down on prep and cooking time, whipping up a delicious batch of soup in the slow cooker is the only way to go.

After stumbling across this Crock-Pot Creamy Tomato Soup recipe from Crockin' Girls, I know what's going to be on my dinner menu one night this weekend. With healthy ingredients that most of us probably already have in our pantries, this soup provides the ultimate dose of good old-fashioned comfort food with little to no effort. (Seriously. My 7-year-old could throw this dish together.)

As temperatures drop and snow starts falling there's really nothing more delicious than a hearty bowl of beef stew. It warms the body and is good for the soul -- true comfort food at its finest, really.

Even better is the fact that you can make it in your crock pot with this recipe from Kitchen Life of a Navy Wife. Filled with potatoes, vegetables, and chunks of sirloin, you just take a few minutes to toss everything in, then let it cook all day. When dinner time rolls around, you're ready to roll. Speaking of which, some rolls or bread would go great with it.

We all love a grilled cheese sandwich. And we love a crunchy BLT. So what happens when the two get together? We wonder why we hadn't thought of it before, that's what. Heidi Larsen came up with this gem of a recipe on her blog, Foodie Crush.

Heidi's BLT grilled cheese recipe calls for lacy Swiss cheese, which I think would go perfectly with bacon. But of course you can swap in any other cheese you like better. And if you're looking for a perfect tomato soup to go with that sandwich, here's a slow cooker tomato soup recipe from our big list of crock pot soups. And there you go! The ultimate snowy day weekend lunch, BLT grilled cheese with a side of cozy soup.
