Turns out even slow cookers can multitask, turning out everything from breakfast (French heroine and peanut butter hot chocolate) to dessert (cherry gingerbread and orange pudding caramel solidify.)
Those inspired to start using this appliance for every meal of the day will find lots of ideas in "The Better Homes and Gardens’ Eventual Slow Cooker Book." Some 400 recipes include outstanding offerings for chicken, pork and beef dishes, each labeled with prep every so often and nutrition information.
A few words of advice: Be sure to cast off chicken skin before cooking, cut the vegetables into uniformly sized pieces, and only add dairy products at the end since they can away down over long periods. Here’s one instance where canned condensed cream soups business very well if you want a creamy effect.
Always taste a slow-cooker recipe before serving - and don’t be surprised if you want a little additional salt and pepper. And if you plan to peg, divide stews and soups into shallow containers so they’ll composed more quickly before going into the freezer.
