Bonnie Baumgardner often serves this quick skillet side dish to delighted guests at her Sylva, North Carolina home. 'It tastes so delicious it's hard to believe it's good for you,' she exclaims. 'And it's hearty enough to serve as a meatless main dish.'
One of our family's all-time favorites. Make it as spicy or mild as you please. It is hearty on a cold winter's night. If you are cooking for a crowd, this recipe can easily be doubled. Be sure to serve this with cornbread!
Even if you usually use white rice, try short-grain brown rice here: whole grains are nutty and delicious, and they're a great, inexpensive way to add nutrients to your diet. Get the recipe at Disney Family.com
This is the ultimate in thriftiness and convenience - beans in a slow cooker. The long, slow cooking time coaxes all the flavor from the sausage into the beans for a mild yet full-flavored dish. You can also cook in on low heat for 8 hours.
This is an extremely easy recipe, and fabulous tasting, too. I have been making it for over 6 years and we never tire of it. It's rich, and warms you up on a cold winter day.
This Wild Rice and Ham Slow Cooker Casserole recipe contains mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, fully cooked ham, long grain and wild rice, frozen cut broccoli and more.
A moist and flavorful sausage, dried cherry, and wild rice stuffing forms a spiral when rolled into a top loin roast. Serve with the pan gravy for a delicious and elegant dinner.
Pork chops are browned, then combined in the slow cooker with brown and white rice, onions, mushrooms, peas, and water chestnuts, in a flavorful sauce of beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and onion soup mix.
This is my take on a Louisiana classic. No shortcuts! Put everything into the slow cooker in the morning and you will have your meal ready in the late afternoon or evening, whenever you are ready. This recipe will feed a lot of people.
This is my favorite emergency meal, made almost entirely of pantry ingredients when a trip to the store has been missed or is out of the question for some reason.
