Side Dish
Potato Skins
A while back, I made a pot of Baked Potato Soup. That recipe calls just for the fluffy middles of the potatoes. I decided to freeze the skins to use another time. It worked great.

Complete Barbecue Chicken Dinner in the Slow Cooker
A whole Barbecue Chicken Dinner cooked in the slow cooker! The trick is in foil packets and layering the food, something I learned from Stephanie at A Year of Slow Cooking. She used the trick to make steak, baked potatoes and corn on the cob in the slow cooker. I’ve used her trick to cook ham with Hashbrown Casserole.
