Family Balance Sheet

In this post, I offer two ways to cook dried beans: crock pot and stove top. I prefer the slow cooker method, because I don’t have to be home when the beans are cooking. Pour beans into a large pot and add 6 – 8 cups of hot water and boil for 2 minutes on your stove top. Do NOT turn on the crock pot.

I place all of the chicken breasts from a 3 lb package in a 6-Quart crock-pot. I pour about 32 oz of homemade chicken stock on top and cooked on low for about 6-7 hours, or until it is done. Chicken in the main component in many of my dishes and eliminating the cooking part of chicken during meal prep should save me some time.
