I make a lovely Italian type stew in mine:
bung stewing steak into slow clooker - mine can go directly onto hob so I can brown the meat in it which is handy!! Add onions then bung in sauce.
SAUCE: (cheats way of getting veg into kids!)
tin toms
3 - 4 roasted red peppers out of jar(if I ahve them or 1 -2 normal red peppers if I don't!)
1 courgette
garlic - lots!
herbs - usually basil n oregano as they're my faves but mixed herbs will do
blitz tog then bung in slow cooker with meat.
Leave on low all day so meat is nice n tender. Thicken with tomato puree. Serve with pasta and crsuty bread!
SPAG BOL
brown mince, add onions, bung in same sauce. leave on all day - flavours nice n intense. Serve with spaghetti. I know it's not a traditional spag bol but my kids adore it!
I also do my Sunday roasts in my slow cokker. brown them off, leave them in the SC on low for a few hours and the meat just falls off the bone. I do chicken, beef, pork in there.
Have fun!
