Will you share your uncomplicated slow cooker recipes with me? (Also an additional question about this CrockPot)

1 Answer

Answer :

The plastic smell is probably the heating element being used for the first time. The food should be fine. if they’re meat eaters throw a roast in with a can of condensed soup, usually cream of mushroom but others would work if they don’t like mushrooms. Chilis work good in a slow cooker, or a stew. Just go easy on the liquids til you get a feel for it. And try to resist opening it too often. it really slows the cooking time.
