    Did you literally just chuck them in? As in, on their own? No liquid, no oil, no sauce, just the chicken legs?

    (I've only owned a SC for 2 weeks you see :D)

    I just put a bit of water in, just enough to cover them. I was thinking it might be nice to use as stock to make a soup or something? I've only had mine since christmas, they're great aren't they? :)
    :heart: Think happy & you'll be happy :heart:

    Aww congrats hunny :D I didn't know you could do lasagne in the slow cooker, i've only ever made lasagne once and it went wrong (not in the slow cooker) so I might try this. Hope you enjoy your meal :D

    Scheduled for tomorrow - 20 browned sausages, 2 cans of onion soup, can of concentrated mushroom soup, tomato puree, minced garlic, fried onions, mushrooms, salt, paprika, beef concentrate. Half for dinner with mash, half for the freezer.

    Hoping for a yummy sausage casserole, could add a tin of baked beans but probably won't.
