Fall... means chili and soup season is here! The beekeepers at the Waterford Bee Company are firm believers in the power of the slow cooker to make wonderful, flavorful meals in the fall. Finding ways to use our favorite Waterford Bee Company salsa's means a lot of experiments in the kitchen. We created this dump recipe originally using our Bacon Habanero Salsa which gave it a hint of smoke, bacon and a nice kick. Depending on your heat tolerance you can drop down to our Mild Salsa or our face melting Carolina Reaper Salsa.
