    Rice pudding today.

    Decided to make a chicken and leek crumble so that freed up the SC for a pudding :j

    I got some left over chicken out of the freezer yesterday, so I've got a chicken and mushroom casserole in mine today.

    Mine is empty but about to be used for the first time:j

    I have a gammon joint that I am boiling before I pop it in with some water, a few cloves and mustard seeds and probably a couple of bay leaves. Can't wait to taste it :D


    Is it sad that I am so excited?!?:o

    No, I was too :p

    Got a joint of beef in mine today with sliced potato, carrots and onion. Should be ready about 6pm.

    Just got a new larger slow cooker so am v excited about trying out better recipies (new one has 3 settings old one had 1!).

    This is a long thread & I have trawled through some of it (but I must go & do my mountain of ironing!) but could anyone point me in the direction of a nice lasagne recipe & a bolognaise recipe.

    Today I have a pork casserole cooking - one of those recipes where you chuck in what you have!

    Thanks in advance ;)
    NEVER ASSUME! :rolleyes:

    I just use my normal bolognaise recipe, and then use the leftovers to convert to lasagne the next day. But am sure someone will have a proper SC recipe :)
