Slow Cookers: From Soup to Nuts
You can make much more than chili in a slow cooker. This workshop will show you how to use a slow cooker in ways you might not expect.
The recipe list may include roasted nuts, spinach lasagna, mulled cider, artichoke dip, fruit salsa, and/or vegetable curry. (Samples of one of these will be available.)
Because slow cookers require almost no attention, they can save you over an hour of cooking time per day if you cook at home (depending on what you're making). If you've been ordering take-out, you can use a slow cooker to cut the cost of your dinners to less than $2 each.

lesson plan
The workshop will include a demonstration, advice and recipe information. I will probably do a Q&A where I ask people what dishes they want to make and give them advice based on their answers.
facilitator experience
I began using a slow cooker when I was in grad school so I could do homework and make dahl at the same time. I've graduated to making many other recipes since then. Last year, I won a recipe contest for creative uses of holiday leftovers.
intended audience
Anyone who is interested in saving time in the kitchen
