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!
Preheat oven to 220°C
cut horizontal slit 1/2 way through each chicken breast
Combine basil and cheese and fill each chicken breast with 1/2 mixture
Wrap bacon around breast - secure with Toothpick
Bake for 15-20min....
Method:
1) combine garlic and tandoori paste, brush chicken with paste mix
2) heat a grill to medium-high and cook chicken for 20-25min until browned and cooked through (i also like to cook them in the oven, takes similar amount of time)
3) Serve chicken topped with combined chutney and yoghurt, sprinkle with coriander
i like to serve it with steamed rice or cous cous.
Method:
1) Heat a small pan coated with cooking spray to medium and cook veal on both sides until browned and just tender. Transfer veal to a small flat ovenproof dish and set aside
2) Spoon tomato salsa onto veal and top with avacardo slices. Arrange cheese on top & place under a hot grill. Cook until cheese is melted.
Cailin - I made the brownie slice!! Yuummmm!!! But I swapped the white choc bits for nuts - delish! I also made a coconut slice & cornflake slice (not low fat, but lower than usual IYKWIM)
