Forgive me if there is an existing thread but I thought I'd start one for everyone's favourite slow cooker recipes/ideas. I love mine but tend to get stuck in a rut with it a bit. please post below Smile

Probably my favourite thing to do is to whack a whole chicken in (as big as slow cooker will alllow) along with a couple of carrots, an onion and a leek, sea salt, black peppercorns, bay leaves and top with water then just leave it for hours until the whole chicken has started to fall apart.

I then pick all the meat off onto a plate and discard all the yuck parts and skin. You get loads, a big dinner plate piled up (strangely satisfying) then sieve the stock into a big bowl. I tend to freeze half the stock at this point.

Put half the stock in a saucepan, add a few handfuls of tiny soup pasta. When it's nearly cooked, add half your shredded chicken and a bag of spinach. Heat through and ladle into bowls topped with Parmesan. Delish!

Then you still have half your chicken left over for a curry, pasta bake or similar Smile
