I found I am able to use my crock pot as an oven. I have been trying EVERYTHING in: acorn squash, yellow squash, zucchini, potatoes, yams, etc. - without any water. Often I leave some things like acorn squash, yams, and potatoes in the crock overnight - on the low setting. It makes life so much easier! It also eliminates so much processed foods.
To the Brit poster, Yes a crockpot is a brand of slow cooker.
To the poster: WOW that is a great idea. My husband just started a job as a trucker so is not home and my son is away at college. I am home alone and eating very unhealthy. It seems a waste to heat the oven for one person. I shall definately use my slow cooker. HMM and I was just thinking my slow cooker was too big. THANKS
Thank you for the idea! I'm going to try baking something this way tonight. Am thinking of trying to make bread dough in a can work like this...maybe with a little water in the crock? Thanks for the inspiration!
