    The Summer Crockpot

    How can I use my crockpot in the summertime? This was the question I asked in a recent forum and just see the great responses I've gotten!! My thanks go to the wonderful zaaristas who responded. I've also found that Judith Finlayson in her book "The 150 Best Slow Cooker Recipes" recommends the following summer uses: soups that are to be served cold, vegetable accompaniments for bbq-ed meats, and desserts. I have added a few recipes I've found that meet these criteria, also, and be sure to check out my Crockpot Desserts cookbook. Naturally, if I have left out any recipes you think belong here, I hope you will tell me so that they can be included!

    Chicana...mexican I Think?
    Handle
    8 Reviews |  By bmxmama

    This recipe was given to me by my friend Sherri. I have sometimes roasted the veggies before adding them to the pot, and I usually add the 6 cloves of garlic, but that is optional if you don't like garlic as much as I do. If I can find good fresh tomatoes, I use those instead of the canned ones. I also take the seeds out of the jalapenos, as my kids can't handle the heat but love to eat it. I hope you enjoy this dish as much as my family does.

    Impossibly Easy Use-It-Up Pie (Oamc)
    Handle

    I love the impossibly easy pies. They are so easy to put together and bake up to be delicious. I think they make a fine summer meal, even if you do have to use the oven to make it. This is a basic recipe that you can vary any way you wish, depending on what is in the refrigerator. I used sauteed onions, cooked asparagus and Cheddar cheese (being inspired by Chef Silky's Asparagus Cheddar Quiche.) Cooked meat may be added along with the vegetables, if desired. I'm not positive but I think the recipe comes from "Frozen Assets."

    Crock Pot Creamed Corn

    This is the best creamed corn I've ever eaten. I got the recipe from the Rival Crock Pot book. Its different than the usual can of creamed corn. Much better and probably more fattening, but that's what makes it so tasty!

    Slow Simmered Spaghetti and Meatballs (Crock Pot)
    Handle

    This was one of those serendipitous happenings that continue to amaze/amuse me. My DS called me on a Wednesday evening around suppertime to ask if it would be alright to come visit for the weekend, bringing his boys. They would arrive Friday at suppertime. Since I knew that DD and her family would want to be included for dinner to give her more time to visit w/ her brother over the weekend... I suddenly went from "just me" for dinner to "eight" for dinner! What to fix at the last minute like this??? A while later I was reading the paper and came across this recipe in the food section and thought: AH HA! Dinner! I bought the ingredients after work on Thursday and, Friday morning, everything went into the crock pot (I made a double batch). When I got home after work, I made a salad, wrapped bakery Italian bread in foil to heat in the oven, and started the water boiling for the spaghetti. Everyone LOVED it, as I did too, and the leftovers were scarfed up by the grand kids the next day for lunch. Age ranges of diners were 18 months up to ... well, let's just say I'm a grandmother of five! This will definitely be a repeater at my house! (Recipe courtesy of B. Mills & A. Ross of "Desperation Dinners" column in the Raleigh NC News & Observer.)
