10 Slow Cooker Dinners With Only 3 Ingredients for Seniors Living Alone (Nothing to Chop)

Three things in the pot. Not three and a little something, and not three plus a list of what you ought to already own. Three. The slow cooker is the one machine almost all of you already own, and a good many of you tell me yours is still in the cupboard, because somewhere along the way it became the pot you use when company is coming instead of the pot you use on a Wednesday. But here is the thing nobody says out loud about it, and it changes everything that comes after. A slow cooker cannot cook for one person. Even a small one has to be near half full or the edges scorch and the middle stays cold, so every recipe you will ever find hands you three or four portions whether you wanted them or not. Most videos stop there. They give you the supper and leave you standing in your kitchen at seven in the evening with a pot that holds four dinners and one of you. So on every single one of these I tell you what to do with what is left. Does it freeze, what to put it in, and how long it keeps. Every recipe, not once at the end. Number two is the only one in the whole video that makes exactly one serving and leaves nothing behind. WHAT IS IN THIS VIDEO The one rule that matters more than any other, and what it costs you every time you break it Why hard things go on the bottom and meat goes on top The liner that solves the only real fault this machine has, for pennies One. Lemon pepper pork chops, and there are only two things in it Two. Italian chicken, the only true single serving here Three. Shredded taco chicken, one pot that becomes five different dinners Four. Buffalo chicken, the only one from a proper test kitchen Five. Apple barbecue pork sandwiches, and why you should ignore the knife Six. Ham and beans, no soaking, the cheapest supper here Seven. Plain shredded chicken, and the ratio that lets you make any amount Eight. Swedish meatballs, and the one thing everybody gets wrong with them Nine. Smoked sausage with sauerkraut, where the order in the pot is everything Ten. Pineapple shrimp tacos, the only one where the clock really matters The instruction on four of these recipes that I want you to ignore completely How to load it the night before without ever lifting a heavy pot All measurements and times are in the video and on screen, in both American and metric. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TAGS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3 ingredient slow cooker recipes, slow cooker dinners for seniors, crockpot recipes for one, slow cooker meals for seniors living alone, easy crockpot dinners, 3 ingredient dinners, cooking for one over 60, dump and go crockpot, slow cooker cooking for one, senior cooking, cheap slow cooker meals, crockpot for two, no chop dinners, easy dinners for seniors, slow cooker shredded chicken
