Adapting Recipes for the Slow Cooker Tips

• If your recipe calls for a large amount of liquid cut down a bit in the slow cooker to avoid watery meals.
• One recipe tested used chicken with the skin in the slow cooker. The results were better after removing the skin, since the skin became soggy when cooked in the slow cooker.
• Use the instructions from your slow cooker as a guide for how long to cook meals, but keep in mind that cooking longer in a slow cooker does not usually cause negative results.
• If you are preparing a meal that might stick in your slow cooker, be sure to spray your slow cooker with Crisco Cooking Spray before use to make cleanup of your slow cooker a breeze.
