Since early last year, Tracy Bermeo has used her Crock It!series to give readers dozens of easy meals to make in a slow cooker like a Crock-Pot. These recipes keep you from turning on the oven, which is a plus even in an air-conditioned kitchen on the hot days we have been having.
But in some recipes, you needed to use a saute pan for a bit before you put the ingredients in the slow cooker, and in this heat that just seems unbearable. So here’s a recap of Crock It! recipes that require no stove or oven time at all. And to keep the kitchen even cooler, we also eliminated any recipe that requires time in a microwave.
If even this kind of cooking is overwhelming, there are plenty of food businesses to buy from in our affiliated ShopVerona.com directory. See Food & Drink and Restaurants.
