I haven't tried it myself, but my family loves when I cook a pork tenderloin in the crock pot. I am fairly lazy about it, I pour a container of salsa on top of it and let it slow cook away. For myself vegetarian chili is one of my favorite crock pot meals.

No proficiency yet with any other dishes, but this one is pretty dang good.

My crockpot would be worth the price of admission if it could only do chili. It's that awesome. But it also does any other kind of soup/stew business I throw at it. Or into it.

At Steph's recommendation I made lasagna in the crock pot a while back. I was amazed how well it turns out. I was expecting sort of like a skillet lasagna, but it's brown and crispy on top, perfectly done underneath - not mushy or soupy. And super easy.

brenda, last night, as I was lying in bed, the subject that crossed my mind was Steph's crock pot lasagne!

Honestly, I was ruminating on the unbelievability of physics of just what you described. How can that be?

How can _anything_ be crispy in that environment!

I make granola in my crock pot, too -- it's a lot less prone to burning than when I make it in the oven.

Seriously, I must try this. Because I love granola, and it just never goes well when I try to make my own.

Magic, is my theory.

I am struggling with "the perfect is the enemy of the good" but feel I need to ask one more question before getting on with the web show marketing.

My days of boring y'all with this are definitely coming to a middle.

No, I actually mean 'end.'

My current tagline is: A web show where we talk about the things you just don't want to talk about...but should.

I've been getting pushback on the word 'should' which I do understand.

I'm trying to be a bit controversial because my style is totally appreciative and supportive, BUT very proactive.

Anyway, I just haven't found the perfect words, despite understanding the objections.

This morning, I came up with: The web show where we talk about the things in life that are hard to face, and even harder to talk about.

That seems kind of long.

I have a web person producing a facebook fan page, so I need to make a decision quickly.

I'd appreciate any thoughts!

This was the recipe I used as my springboard (with granola, you can pretty much throw in whatever you want): [link] It's from a crockpot/slow cooker recipe site, so it's worth poking around for other recipes.
