Slow Cooker Tips

I love this time of year!  In the morning and evening the is a cool crisp chill in the air, but during the day it is still nice and warm. 

I use my slow cooker all year long.  During the summer I usually have a side dish cooking to go along with whatever has been grilled up.  As the weather makes its transition, so do I.  My menu begins to get filled up with yummy comfort foods and filling soups and stews.
