WELCOME

Welcome to this slow cooker/crockpot blog. I believe slow cookers are the best thing to happen to modern day cooks. I used mine often when I worked outside the home and continue to do so even in retirement. It is so nice to put food on and forget about it. Slow cookers also allow us to cook many things we would normally have to use the oven for; what a relief in hot Texas weather! Some of these recipes are mine, many are ones I have collected over the years.

CAJUN HAM and BEANS

Note: This delicious recipe is from bunsinmyoven. The photo is theirs, too.

1 package Hurst's Cajun 15 Bean Soup
8 ounces carrots
1 sweet onion
4 stalks celery
2 cloves garlic
8 cups chicken broth
15 ounce can diced tomatoes
2 cups diced cooked ham
 
  • Rinse and sort the beans, removing any debris.
  • Add beans and seasoning packet to a 6 quart slow cooker set to high.
  • Dice the carrots, onions, celery, and garlic and add to the slow cooker along with the chicken broth.
  • Cover and cook on high for 5 hours or until beans are tender.
  • Add canned tomatoes (undrained) and ham to the slow cooker. Stir and continue cooking for 1 more hour.

  • Note: I use vegetable broth as I don't do anything chicken.
