[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have time to do a from-scratch meal you don't need the Crockpot. People use the Crockpot because they are in a time crunch. Not because they love canned soup.[/quote] Time is not the only reason to use a crockpot. I also use it to save energy (the crockpot uses less electrical energy than letting my gas stove burn for 6-8 hours of low slow cooking) and for safety reasons (I can leave the house if I want with the crock pot going, but I would never leave the house with a live fire going on the stove--that's how national firefighters association statistics on home fires are increased). I don't usually use a crockpot for weekday meals, but I do use it on weekends to make various scratch recipes that will take a long time and energy to cook, stews, soups, chilis, etc. Some favorites: [url]http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/chicken-chili-verde-3012[/url] [url]http://addapinch.com/cooking/balsamic-pork-tenderloin-recipe/[/url][/quote]
