With the cold chill of winter on the way, it's about time to get out the slow cookers and dust them off.

I use my crock pots (or slow cookers) all year round, but more so in the winter time. I have several, so that I can cook more than one dish at a time.

A couple weeks ago when I was expecting company, I put some chicken in one crock pot and a lentil-rice dish in another. In a third pot I put a vegetable mixture. I had timed them to all be ready at about the same time. That means putting the crock pots on to cook at different times, but because it only takes a few minutes to put in the ingredients and turn it on, that's not a big deal at all.

When company came, I already had the table set and all we had to do was dish up the hot food. No stress, very little mess. It is cooked in the slow cooker and then I just lift the inner crock out and serve the food in the original crock instead of using a serving bowl.

It looks nice and is less to wash up after. All my inner crocks and lids can go in the dishwasher. After cleaning I just return the inner crock into the base, put on the lid and put away until next time.

In fact, I think I will go put something into the crock-pot right now...then about 2 hours before my meal I will put some bread dough into the bread machine. We will have fresh hot chili and homemade bread for supper! A cheap, filling, satisfying home cooked meal.
