Crockpot Supper

June 14th, 2010 at 06:33 pm

Supper is in the Crockpot.

That’s always a good thing. I know most would say it is too hot for beef stew, but, that’s what we are having. I have a bunch of appointments today and we had stew meat and vegetables, so that’s what I fixed. I baked biscuits last night and made a fruit salad.

I always marvel at the person who came up with the idea of a Crockpot. What a wonderful invention. I know there’s a recipe booklet entitled, “Fix and forget it.” No kidding. I use my Crockpots a lot and feel they help us save money – we can buy cheaper cuts of meat and cooking all day makes them tender. Dinner is ready when you get home with not too much fuss and muss. And the newer slow cookers have the liners you can take out and put in the dishwasher – I remember having to try and clean the ones that you couldn’t do that with. I loved the cooker, but not the cleaning.

It’s nice to know supper is in the Crockpot.

    Ha! I have that cookbook! We got it as a wedding present years ago. I'm a huge fan of the crockpot, but not a fan of that particular book. Share your recipes!!

    I need to upgrade my crockpot, because my liner doesn't come out. I do use it with some frequency.

    Beth, I agree, I don't particularly like that cookbook either!

    What kind of recipes do you want?

    I love having a liner that comes out because then I can use it as a serving dish as well, creditcardfree.

    i don't have a dishwasher, but find it's pretty easy to clean anyway. i just let it cool and then fill it with soapy water and leave it for 10 minutes - you can just wipe it out after that.
