Simple Slow Cooking Recipes for Every Home Cook

Crock pots although easy to use, are not often brought out for the average home cook. Luxury and affordable slow cookers do just about the same things and are often given as gifts. It is possible to cook breakfast, lunch, dinner, and desserts. Read below CBCI’s list of simple slow cooking recipes for every home cook.

Crock Pot Posole

This hearty Mexican soup is a classic in most households. This recipe calls for a combination of salsa verde (green salsa), hominy, and stewed meats preferably chicken. The soup is topped with cabbage, sliced radishes, avocado, lime juice, and tortilla chips. Click here for a great recipe.

Crock Pot Turkey Chili

Slow Cooked Short Ribs

Short ribs in a slow cooker are an easy alternative to traditionally braised short ribs. You do not have to pay attention to it the entire time it cooks. Add carrots and other veggies to complete your meal. Click here for a great recipe.
