Slow Cooker Ideas

[Smowball]

Soooooo, I’m trying to cook double whenever I do anything so I can freeze half, so what are your best slow cooker recipes??

[Bobbisox1]

Casseroles and Currys are always a good bet Smow

[Smowball]

Yep they’re always fab. Can you freeze dumplings successfully??

[Mamyalynne]

I'd make and freeze the dumplings separately on a tray, then bag when frozen.

Add to stew when reheating to serve.

I only ever use mine to slow cook joints of ham.

Our favourite involves good quality sausages..we prefer M&S ones..a tin of baked beans (or any other tinned beans), some tomato purée, a pack of stewing veg, a stock cube or a sachet of some kind of casserole mix, a splash of Lea and Perrins, and maybe a handful of peas or sweet corn.
It’s not really a recipe, it just depends on what’s to hand really, it’s the sausages which make the difference.
