        Overnight porridge with old-fashioned steel-cut oats is a go to for comfort food. I'm just in the process of baking an rice pudding starting with uncooked rice. I bet a slow-cooker version of that would be nice and creamy.

          Overnight porridge with old-fashioned steel-cut oats. 3 parts liquid to 1 part oats and a shake or two of salt. I use equal measures of milk and water, but just water works well too. Add a dash of Maple Syrup for sweetness. I'm just cooking a Rice Pudding in the oven, staring from uncooked rice. I bet a slow-cooker version of Rice Pud would be great, too. It never occurred to me. Maybe next time.

            SWMBO makes great roasts and chilis. They're not done in a slow cooker, but they're done much the same way. There are a lot of chili recipes out there, so you have to find one that you like. Your .sig mentions bacon, so you can't go wrong there. Pinto beans, kidney beans, and mushrooms are also good. And chili peppers, of whatever variety imparts the level of heat that you want. When I was living in Dallas, some colleagues went to a county fair in more of a rural area. They said that the secret ingredient in that fair's prize-winning chili was squirrel meat. :-D

              This meal is a family favorite, never gets old, and is easy and quick. :thumbsup:

              Italian Veggie & Pasta Soup

              1 lb ground beef
              3 carrots - chopped very small
              4 stalks Celery - chopped
              2 cans diced tomatoes - do not drain (for zest one could be tomatoes with green chilies)
              2 cans red kidney beans - could drain them but I don't
              3 cans beef broth
              1 24 oz can traditional spaghetti sauce
              1 8 oz pack of macaroni - elbow or, better yet, shells

              Brown and drain ground beef then add to pot.
              Add carrots and Celery to pot
              Empty all cans into pot
              Stir, cover and cook on low for 6-8 hrs or high for 4 hrs.

              Before serving cook up macaroni in separate pot.

              To serve put large spoon full of macaroni in bowl with a ladle full of soup.

                There is hardly any meat on a squirrel :D ..but yes, sounds like a good plan for today :D

                  ..and my mind went "unions! unions!!" :D Those three are called "mirepoix" and is an often used flavor base. Guess I'll be trying this one twice; once with and once without unions.

                    You'd have to talk to my wife. She's an extremely slow cooker. Of course, she is extremely slow at every thing she does. She has two speeds, slow and full stop. Her dishes are wonderful. :cool:
