Guest guest Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Chelsea, Thanks so much for the information! I was planning on saving some soup to freeze in a small container as a test, but I figured that I would ask since I was posting to rave about the soup anyway. And, as a bonus, more soup for me for lunch! I'll give the slow cooker a try with the times you posted below, then mess with it if I have to. I have a never-used crockpot in my cupboard, so I really had no clue how long to cook on High.

I tried it in my Rival crockpot and it came out fine. I cooked it on high for about 3 hours and then on low for one hour. Just test it, each crockpot seems to vary in time. Chelsea _______ Well, do you ever get the feeling that the story's too damn real and in the present tense? Or that everybody's on the stage, and it seems like you're the only person sitting in the audience? ~ JT ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
