It's hot outside and we want to go places with our loooong summer days. And when we get home I so do not feel like cooking. So, if the crock can do the work, I'm all for that! In fact, I have never cooked beans any other way - it's just too fool-proof in the crock pot! I rinsed and soaked some cranberry beans the night before, dumped them into the crock with enough water to cover, added a chopped onion, some oregano, chili powder, chopped garlic, and some leftover fajita meat...
I replaced my broken lid knob with a metal drawer pull - not real bright on my part, but at least it works! Hence, the chickie pot holder helping me out. You like? I think I'm going to make some for Christmas gifts. Anyhoo, back to the beans...
When the beans were tender, I added a can of rotel and adjusted the salt and pepper. I am happy to report that everyone ate them up along with some of Pioneer Woman's olive cheese bread. In fact, there were only two smallish containers left which I froze for work lunches.
I so love my crock pot.
