Sorry if someone has already answered this one.

But can I put uncooked pasta and or rice in my slow cooker?

I have bought a slowcooker, and although I have used it, it`s not getting as much use as it should. Done lots of stews and pork casserole etc, with pots.

Also what about frozen quorn, can I just stick it in?

I am now a working mum, and could do with a few quick meal tips. Complete meals are best.

Eating quorn instead of chicken after watching that program.!

Finding it hard to fit it all in, and don`t want to just stick a ready meal in the oven!

    Have a look at the slow cooker recipe thread HERE to see if there are any recipes there that would suit.

    HERE's a link to a recipe site which says you CAN do rice or pasta in the slow cooker. Have a look and see what you think.
