Re: Crock Pot Recipes for a Busy School Year
Last summer when we visited my BFF, she made this recipe of Red Beans & Rice. It was SO good and I've been meaning to try it.

Crock Pot Recipes for a Busy School Year
I just bagged up 6 slow cooker meals last night to freeze, empty into pot, and cook. One more to do this morning. Just bought a new slow cooker, no idea how good it is or how the family will like the new recipes....

Re: Crock Pot Recipes for a Busy School Year
What did you make?
Freezer to crock would be even more ideal. I made some I found on New Leaf Wellness. The turkey black bean chili I listed was one, and it was very good. Some others, like the Thai Peanut Chicken, did not come out well.

So far we have eaten beef ragu, short cut jambalaya and today it's chicken curry. You can't cook them from frozen because of the risk of food poisoning. Today's hasn't defrosted overnight so I've got the bag in a bowl of water. Worked on the jambalaya.

Sausage would add extra flavouring but just adjust your seasoning? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Re: Crock Pot Recipes for a Busy School Year
I don't know about chipotle flavouring but I would consider adding paprika generously.

Re: Crock Pot Recipes for a Busy School Year
Especially smoked paprika if you've got it.

"ONCE COOKED: When beans are fully cooked, remove bay leaves (if you can find them all) add butter and stir." "SPRINKLE with hot sauce and/or more Tony's if you want it spicy like I do." (I'm guessing this is the Tabasco)
