I'll take whatever you have to hand out. I'm getting a slow cooker for Mothers Day. Aren't I lucky. Something on a day for me to use for everyone else :)
Hmmm, what about stews???
Take care

sorry guys LOL! Forgot about this thread ;) Will get cracking ;) Actually considering the word doc is HUGE and it takes quite a while to get through it all, what say you email me if you want a copy of it and I'll just email it to you and you can post recipes you've tried how does that sound?
*hugs*
Cailin
Thanks Cailin :D
Ok I have emailed it to everyone here in this thread :) Sorry I hadn't posted but it wasn't till I opened it again that I realised why, its mammoth LOL! You'll see when you open it ;)

Cai,
I don't actually have a slow cooker, but I always notice that whenever someone's after a recipe of some description, you always come up with half a dozen winning recipes. =D>
I know who to ask when I need something new or special :D
LOL you should see my recipe collection...I am a bit of a foodie I have to confess ;) I have everything from "the gastronomique" to celebrity chefs to slow cooker books, to about 8 ww recipe books and I don't know how many ****tail books 8-[ I even have 2 editions of Stephanie Alexanders "The Cooks Companion" Her last edition and her newest edition (and ones signed LOL). I am also part of the doubleday cookbook club shame shame shame ;) You could say food is a passion of mine ;)
*hugs*
Cailin
I'm a foodie too, but simply don't have the time while I'm still working.
I'm actually looking forward to finishing up work so I can play in my kitchen again. THEN I'll be hitting you for recipes! (Mind you there's plenty already on BB that I'm busting to try. :)
Cailin, can you email me the recipes too please. Mark brought me one today for mothers day so best i have something to cook in it.
Take care
Trish
Now you've all got me thinking about getting a slow cooker, but being a vegetarian I'm wondering if it's worth getting or is it more of a meat cooking/casserole-y kinda thing?
Does anyone do any vegetarian cooking in their slow cooker or am I dreaming?
I got a slow cooker for mothers day yesterday and I am so looking forward to using it! Although DH says I can't have it until mothers day, but thats ok cause I am spending the week finding recipes.
Wardygirl the instruction booklet for my slow cooker has some vegetarian recipes, there's dhal, chick pea curry, vegetable primavera, chilli bean and veg - and you can also do rice dishes, desserts, bread... and slow cookers are really good for cooking lentils, chick peas etc for meals - so yes, you will definitely be able to do vegetarian meals in one!
Hi Cailin
Could you email me your recipes too pleeease :)
I have a slow cooker but have hardly used it because I don't have any recipes!
Hi Cailin,
I would love a copy of the recipes as well, please!!!
Thanks heaps.
Nic
Hi Cailin,
