I love my Crock Pot, but I hate washing dishes, and I'm sure the rest of you do too, so let me give you a little tip. Buy those Reynolds Slow Cooker liners. You get 5 of them in a box for about $2.50, and it's totally worth the price. It's pretty much like a big baggie, and you put it in your crock pot before you add any of your ingredients. I'm not usually one to shill products, but it does make your life so much easier.

sangnom posted:I have a rival crockpot that...I have unfortunately never used. I live in a dorm room and a lot of recipes require a lot of cooking beforehand, all I have is a small electric skillet, a blender, and a microwave. Any suggestions for basically full meal-in-a-pot dishes that I could make with only that limited amount of accessories. There are frozen meals for Crock Pots out there, but I have to say I find them rather disgusting. To make it a lot easier, McCormick's makes seasoning packets for slow cookers; it tells you what ingredients to buy and how to mix the seasoning. The most difficult one I've made is Italian Chicken, where you had to mix the seasoning packet in tomato paste and a can of tomatoes, then you pour that mixture over some chicken and fresh, sliced mushrooms. Everything I've made has come out tasty, even though I'd rather do everything by hand. You could just make sure to buy all the ingredients the day you're going to make the meal if you don't have enough cold storage. And, since you're in a dorm, listen to me and buy the slow cooker liners. You'll thank me when you're trying to scrub out your stoneware in a bathroom sink.
