http://jessica.mcrackan.com/2012/08/making-time-to-grill.html
Meals with the McRackans. Tuesday, August 28, 2012. Making Time to Grill. Here's the Week's Menu:. MON 8/27 - Brandy Orange Chicken. With baked sweet potatoes, leftover Zucchini Rice Gratin. Brown Rice Chicken and Cilantro Salad. I was just making this for the week's lunches, but then realized the leftover Lasagna Rolls had not finished defrosting, so it became dinner. Turns out it is pretty soy-sauce-heavy, so I'll adjust that next time. Serve with salad and garlic bread. With Zucchini Rice Gratin.

Meals with the McRackans. Sunday, January 17, 2010. General Instructions for a Slow Cooker. This information is from Rival Crock-Pot's Smart-Pot Slow Cooker Owner's Guide. I thought it would be easier to reference them on here than to keep the booklet around somewhere in a kitchen drawer. If you are converting a recipe that calls for uncooked noodles, macaroni, or pasta, cook them on the stovetop just until slightly tender before adding them to slow cooker. Many vegetables benefit from slow cook times an...
