I have made no bones about the fact that I’m a slow cooker devotee.

We eat at least two slow cooker meals a month. Since there is often leftovers, this often turns into more meals.

We toss chili, black bean soup, lasagna casserole, chicken cacciatore, BBQ Pork, white bean soup, white turkey chili, meat sauce, dal, taco flank steak and pork roast in the cooker. I can prepare the ingredients ready the night before and lo, the next morning throw it all in the magic machine

Then, when we return from work, I have a delicious meal on the ready.

Since we usually make bigger portions, we usually have extra. These kinds of meals are marvelous, separated in plastic containers. Freeze it in individual portions for delicious lunches. Yum.

I often use the “It’s Not Your Mother’s Slow Cooker” cookbook — as well, anything I want to cook with beans goes in the slow cooker.

Try it! Use it! It’ll make life easier.
