It’s this time of year that my slow cooker makes a more frequent appearance. I love slow cooker dinners. They are really easy to put together and at the end of the day, depending on the recipe, it’s ready or you just have to chop up some salad (like this recipe below) or make some pasta or rice to serve along side it.
This Asian Chicken Salad isn’t really a winter dish, but my kids absolutely love it. I found this recipe in the little recipe book that came with my crock-pot, there is quite a few recipes in there worth trying. I’ve made it a few times now for dinner and lunch. However, I have tweaked the recipe ever so slightly as we aren’t fans of coriander and prefer to use brown sugar instead of palm sugar.
This is also a great way to poach chicken to have on hand for salads for lunch through the week or stir through enchilada’s or pasta dishes.
this recipe was inspired by the Crock-Pot little recipe book

They’re really yummy Maggie – either to include cooked in meals or served cold in salads. They are available from most Woolworths supermarkets. Kat 🙂
Maggie. Our daughter has moved home too. What I do is set a 5 day dinner menu. Sometimes I change the days but we know what we are eating for the week. Just simple meals, many thanks to Katrina. My menu is now a discussion point with her friends!
Jenny it’s amazing how much less-stressful our weeks become when we have a basic idea of our dinner ideas isn’t it? I love that your daughter and her friends now chat about your meal plan – that’s the best! Haha.
