Recipe Wednesdays: Crockpot and Slow-Cooker Recipes

Welcome to Recipe Wednesdays!

Today’s featured squash recipe is JL Goes Vegan’s Beans, Greens and Grains!

Here’s an excerpt from the post:

“On New Year’s Day I slept in until 7:00. When the temperature hit 40+ I headed out for a four-mile run. Upon my return I showered and put on a fresh pair of pajamas. I had every intention of being a homebody.

I was reading (many, many) food blog posts that featured black-eyed pea recipes. I confess that I knew nothing about the tradition of eating black-eyed peas and collard greens on New Year’s Day. I read a great post on Exploits of a Vegan Wannabe and decided that I had to come up with my own version for this tradition because black-eyed peas and collards rank very high on my list of the very best foods in the whole wide world (kale is at the top, obviously).

I have been wanting to create a recipe with my new pressure cooker, as well as to cook with farro since I bought some last month, so this seemed like the perfect opportunity to experiment with the two.”

And now for this week’s recipe link-up:

What’s better than coming home to a hot, ready-to-eat meal straight out of your crockpot? Not much, in our opinion. Even better, most slow-cooker recipes take minimal time to prepare in the morning. So go ahead, link up your favorite crockpot and slow-cooker recipes. We could all use some inspiration!

Please limit yourself to 2 recipes per member, and make sure to include the name of your recipe. Thanks!

And as a heads-up, next week’s theme will be kid-friendly recipes…so start thinking about what you can cook with the kids in your life!
