    I make yogurt in mine:

    heat milk to 115 degrees

    plug in crock pot, add 1/2 cup of plain store-bought yogurt (think of yogurt as a science experiment, in which you are incubating and growing cultures, i.e. yogurt)

    heat for 10 min before adding milk

    unplug crock pot, add milk and cover with towel....leave set for 8 hours (do not touch or jiggle for 8 hours!!)

    Done! And , no added sugar and little cost!

    If you want more solid yogurt (like Greek yogurt), let the yogurt drain in a tea towel or yogurt bag, if you have one, for a while to desired consistency. If you drain all day, you end up with yogurt cheese...quite good.

    My favorite breakfast. I substitute margarine for the butter, abd I add either an entire apple or a can (10.75 oz) of pumpkin puree to a double batch. This also freezes well!!

    Ingredients

    1 cup steel cut oats
    3 1/2 cups water
    1 cup peeled and chopped apple
    1/2 cup raisins
    2 tablespoons butter
    1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
    2 tablespoons brown sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Directions

    Place the steel cut oats, water, apple, raisins, butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla extract into a slow cooker, and stir to combine and dissolve the sugar. Cover the cooker, set to Low, and allow to cook 6 to 7 hours (for firm oats) or 8 hours (for softer texture).
    New recipe my husband and I created yesterday...

    Loaded Baked Potato Soup! Om nom nom.

    8 med. potatoes, diced with skin
    4 cups water
    1 cube chicken bouillon
    5 Tbsp dried onion (or 1 lg onion, finely chopped)
    8 oz - 2% medium cheddar cheese, cubed
    4 oz - 2% colby jack cheese, cubed
    8 oz fat free cream cheese, cubed (ish)
    2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
    1-1/2 cups nonfat milk
    1 Tbsp garlic, minced
    20 oz. extra lean ham, diced, (5% fat)

    Night before - Dice, blanch, and drain potatoes. Dissolve bouillon in water per package instructions and add dried onions to broth. Cube, dice, and mince cheeses, ham, and garlic.

    Morning before work - Throw everything into the crockpot and stir. Set to low for 10-12 hours.

    Come home, stir, and serve with a dollop of sour cream and garnish with chives.
