I must admit to just chucking in some braising steak, casserole veg and spuds and coming home to something tasty, but I do know that there are quite a few websites with recipes, often American but since I never go by strict measurements then they are easily adaptable.

This one seems fairly good http://www.slowcookerrecipes.org.uk/ and an English one http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipes/slow-cooker-recipes.aspx

Doe.

Here is a very simple recipe:

Half Cook some sausages, then chop into bite size peices.

Add to the Cooker Pot with 1 Tin of Chopped Tomatoes & Gravy Mix (& Spice to Taste), then just leave to cook for a couple of Hours!

I am sure You could sort out DOzens of Variations to the Above to suit Your Taste! Rolling Eyes

Oh yes, all of those Holly, especially if you are having a bit of a gathering, makes a big curry.

I hadn't thought of doing a lamb shank in there - good thinking!
