It’s been almost 20 years since the Crock-Pot was first introduced. Originally, it was intended to help new parents to save time while cooking for their children. Now, it’s more popular than ever. So many people are enjoying their slow cooker for cooking. With only one pot and a slow cooker, preparing a meal or dinner is as easy as can be.

[Text]: I just love cooking with a crock pot. I love how it can be used to cook meat, veggies and rice all at the same time. But if you’re anything like me, you don’t have time to come home from work, start the crock pot, and then go on to do other things. So, I just wanted to share my favorite way to cook with a crock pot. This will be super simple and only take about 20 minutes. So, if you have the time to cook later in the day, you can save some time by making it right before you leave the house. Let’s get started.
Is Canned Beans as Good as Fresh?
So, have you ever wondered how canned green beans compare to fresh ones? In many ways, they are similar. Green beans have a strong flavor, and can be preserved without any special processing. However, they have some differences that might make them inferior to fresh ones. Canning concentrates the flavor of the beans, which means that canned beans can lose some flavor if they are not stored in a cool, dry place. Also, canned beans have a firmer texture. While this is not a problem for some uses, it is for others. One issue with canned green beans is that they are often sprayed with preservatives that may lead to bad aftertaste.
About Crock Pot
I was cooking and the kids were crying, hungry, and wanting a snack. I had made a large pork roast and wanted to make it a complete meal. I had found a recipe for slow cooker green beans and had thrown it in a Crock Pot.
Can You Make Green Beans in a Crock Pot?
This is a very common question that I get asked and I love when my customers ask me to make green beans in a crock pot. It is a great way to make green beans that is easy and can be made ahead of time. To make them, you’ll need: 2 lbs. of green beans, 4-5 cloves of garlic, a 14 oz. can of whole tomatoes, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, and 2 14 oz. cans of diced tomatoes. Then, you just throw everything in the crock pot and let it cook on low for 4-5 hours. You can use either whole green beans or cut your beans in half lengthwise.
