Ingredients List
Important Notes
Using bone-in cuts like pork shoulder adds extra richness and flavor to slow cooker dishes.
Using pre-cooked ready-to-serve rice packets in slow cooker jambalaya prevents the rice from getting gummy or sticky.
Chicken thighs are preferred over chicken breasts for slow cooking when the cooking time is long, as thighs resist drying out.
To stretch a pound of ground beef for a large family meal, bulking up casseroles with beans and thinly sliced potatoes is an affordable and hearty option.
